Pips Daily Guides Hit First Double-Digit Hard Theme as Outlets Publish Nov. 19 Hints
Fresh walkthroughs zero in on a 10-focused board and offer staged help for players who want guidance without a full reveal.
Overview
- Forbes and Mashable published Nov. 19 guides for NYT’s Pips, with Forbes calling the Hard puzzle the first double-digit theme built around 10.
- Forbes’ Erik Kain continued his daily format of full Easy and Medium answers plus a move-by-move Hard walkthrough, following a Nov. 18 Hard puzzle centered on 9.
- Kain’s Nov. 19 solve starts in the equal group using blanks, then works through multiple 10-sum areas with detailed domino placements.
- Mashable offered incremental, space-by-space hints for all three tiers on Nov. 19, reflecting the 10-sum pattern across the Hard grid.
- Both outlets reiterate Pips rules and objectives, noting that players must place all dominoes to satisfy each colored condition and that some boards can allow multiple valid solutions.
