Spoiler ahead. This page covers the Sun, Oct 18 Pips, all three boards. The rules stay in the open; every domino sits behind a control you open yourself.
This is yesterday's Pips from Sun, Oct 18, kept for a day. The hints come first, then the answer, so you can check the grid you played. New to it? Our Pips game page covers where to play, the modes and our tips.
Pips asks you to lay a set of dominoes on a board of colored regions, each with its own rule: a sum to hit, pips that must all match, pips that must all differ, or a total that has to stay above or below a number. Easy falls quickly. Hard usually turns on a single placement that every other tile depends on.
Start with the regions that leave no choice, such as a lone cell with a fixed value or an equal region only one domino can fill. Every tile you lock in narrows the options for its neighbors, so settle the tight corners before you touch the open middle.
