Pips is the New York Times’ first original logic puzzle game, launched on August 18, 2025. It combines traditional dominoes with modern logic puzzle design, providing players with a brand-new puzzle-solving experience.
Playing infinite pips puzzles was inspired by the original and developed as an unlimited version, allowing players to endlessly train their mental agility and problem-solving strategies without being restricted to one puzzle per day.
Players must place all dominoes from the selection area onto the game board, ensuring each colored region meets specific conditions in the pips.
Each colored region has specific conditions that must be met:
| Symbol | Condition Description |
|---|---|
| Number (e.g., “5”) | The sum of all pips equals the number |
| Equals sign (=) | All domino halves have the same pip count |
| Not equal sign (≠) | Each domino half has a different pip count |
| Less than sign (<) | The sum of pips is less than the specified number |
| Greater than sign (>) | The sum of pips is greater than the specified number |
| Blank region | No restrictions |
Dominoes is a friendly tabletop game many Americans know from family cookouts, community centers, and parks. A set has small tiles with two ends, each showing pips from 0 to 6. Players take turns placing tiles so touching ends show the same number. You can play classic draw or block, try Mexican Train, or explore puzzle styles. The fun mixes luck from the tiles you draw with strategy about when to block or save a double. In many cities, especially in Caribbean and Latin communities, games are lively and social with quick play and friendly talk. Elsewhere it is a relaxed pick up game for rainy afternoons. It is cheap, portable, easy to teach, and brings people together.
A pip is a dot on the surface of a domino. These dots are used to represent a number, and each end of a rectangular domino has a certain number. For example, a tile with 2 pips on one end and 4 pips on the other is called a 2-4. In a standard double-six domino set, the number of pips on each half of a tile ranges from zero (a blank end) to six.
Players arrange dominoes on the board to meet the conditions of specific areas, such as having the numbers of the dominoes add up to a target number, being equal, unequal, or greater than or less than a certain number. The specific rules depend on requirements within different areas of the pips game.
On PC, click the domino with your mouse to rotate it. On mobile devices, tap the domino with your finger to rotate.
A highlighted region of pips game doesn’t necessarily mean placing a complete domino there, it might require endpoints from two or more dominoes. Our goal is to meet the requirements shown next to each region.
The latter is the official game with daily updates. Inspired by it, we developed this unlimited version so you don’t have to wait until tomorrow. You can continuously practice your thinking skills here, then dominate on NYT Pips.
