NYT Pips is a daily logic puzzle from The New York Times. You place dominoes on a color-coded grid so that every region satisfies a mathematical rule. It launched in August 2025 and quickly became one of the most popular games in the NYT lineup. On TECHi daily hubs, answers use the same tap-to-reveal spoiler strip as Wordle and Quordle before the full write-up.
What Is NYT Pips?
Pips are the dots on dominoes, numbered 0 to 6 on each half. In the game, you drag and drop dominoes onto a grid divided into colored regions. Each region has a rule you must satisfy — an exact sum, an equality constraint, or a comparison. There are three puzzles every day: Easy, Medium, and Hard.
