Anyone try NY Times Game Pips?

Almost a year later, is anyone still playing this daily or did the hype wear off? I swear the Hard puzzles still stress me out way more than they should!

I play several New York Times (and LinkedIn) games every day, but Pips is my favorite! I look forward to playing it daily.

I often find the Medium puzzles more challenging than the Hard ones. I’m also not a fan of the Hard puzzles that are a rectangular grid with numbers in every cell.

If hard is taking too long for me, it’s usually bc I’m stuck on a wrong solution.

I do the easy and also did the medium up to the point of having my knee surgery in May. My brain went on hiatus for a few months and I need to return to the medium level. I could probably count on my two hands the number of times I tackled the hard level.

Welcome aboard! :slight_smile:

When I’m totally stuck, I’ll google tips for pips today such as by Forbes to get hints.

I love Pips! Of all the games I play probably I am the worst at Pips but I like the challenge. Two of my kids (adult kids) play and regularly beat me.
