Pips NYT is the newest brain-teasing delight from The New York Times, and it’s already stealing puzzle lovers’ hearts. If you’ve been hooked on Wordle or flexing your brain with Connections, it’s time to switch gears because Pips is here with something completely different: domino-style number logic! Think of it as Sudoku’s quirky cousin who shows up at the party with dominoes, no timer, and an endless supply of “aha!” moments.
Unlike word games, Pips doesn’t care about your vocabulary. Rather, it tests your knowledge of numerical rules, such as ensuring that values correspond, deviate, or sum up precisely in particular areas. With three modes—Easy, Medium, and Hard—you can go from a breezy warm-up to a full-on mental workout faster than you can say, “Wait… does this tile go here?”
What makes Pips NYT so lovable is its simplicity wrapped in smart design. No stress, no ticking clock, just you, your tiles, and the sweet sound of brain cells high-fiving each other when everything clicks into place. Plus, every puzzle is handmade by the NYT team—none of that soulless computer generation here.
It’s like Wordle, but instead of yelling at your screen because “PLUMB” isn’t a real word, you’ll be whispering to your tiles, “C’mon buddy, fit right there.”

Easy: Fewer tiles, friendly intro.

Hard: For those who are bold, courageous, and a little masochistic.
Understand the goal
Place all the domino-like tiles on the grid. Each section has rules like “make these numbers add up” or “don’t let them match.” Basically, it’s math—but the fun kind.
Drag, drop, rotate, repeat
Move tiles around until they satisfy the rules. Don’t be shy about rotating them—it’s like puzzle yoga.
Use undo like a pro
Made a mistake? No panic button needed. Just undo and try again. (Trust me, you’ll be using this a lot.)
Start small
Fill in the obvious regions first. Small triumphs set the stage for larger ones.
Win with style
When the whole board is filled and all rules are satisfied, bask in the glory of being a certified puzzle genius.
