It\u2019s a good excuse to have some lazy time and kick back with a good book, some puzzle games and maybe a movie or some TV shows (which you can find in my handy weekend streaming guide).

Each colored area represents a different \u201ccondition\u201d that you have to achieve. You have a select number of dominoes that you have to spend filling in the grid. You must use every domino and achieve every condition properly to win. There are Easy, Medium and Difficult tiers.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s an example of a difficult tier Pips:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed-base image-embed embed-6460 alignright\" role=\"presentation\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"bMqrj\">\n<p><span style=\"-webkit-line-clamp:2\" class=\"Ccg9Ib-7 _8XF2kHYM\">Pips example<\/span><\/p>\n<p><small class=\"pGGCM2aD\">Screenshot: Erik Kain<\/small><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>As you can see, the grid has a bunch of symbols and numbers with each color. On the far left, the three purple squares must not equal one another (hence the equal sign crossed out). The two pink squares next to that must equal a total of 0. The zig-zagging blue squares all must equal one another. You click on dominoes to rotate them, and will need to since they have to be rotated to fit where they belong. <\/p>\n<p>Not shown on this grid are other conditions, such as \u201cless than\u201d or \u201cgreater than.\u201d If there are multiple tiles with &gt; or &lt; signs, the total of those tiles must be greater or less than the listed number. It varies by grid. Blank spaces can have anything. The various possible conditions are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>= All pips must equal one another in this group.<\/li>\n<li>\u2260 All pips must not equal one another in this group.<\/li>\n<li>&gt; The pip in this tile (or tiles) must be greater than the listed number.<\/li>\n<li>&lt; The pip in this tile must be less than the listed number.<\/li>\n<li>An exact number (like 6) The pip must equal this exact number.<\/li>\n<li>Tiles with no conditions can be anything.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In order to win, you have to use up all your dominoes by filling in all the squares, making sure to fit each condition. Sometimes there\u2019s only one way to solve the puzzle. Other times, there can be two or more different solutions. <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/games\/pips\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"color-link\" title=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/games\/pips\/\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/games\/pips\/\" aria-label=\"Play today\u2019s Pips puzzle here\">Play today\u2019s Pips puzzle here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"embed-base rule-embed color-accent border-solid weight-light\"\/><\/section>\n<section id=\"todays-pips-solutions-walkthrough\">\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">Today\u2019s Pips Solutions And Walkthrough<\/h2>\n<p>Below are the solutions for the Easy and Medium tier Pips.
