Pips Hints for Every Difficulty
Use Pips Hints when you want help without jumping straight to the answer. The hints page shows progressive clues for the selected date, grouped by Easy, Medium, and Hard.
Each difficulty starts with quick hints, then moves through stronger steps. The final answer is collapsed by default, so you only open it when you are ready.

If you want the solution immediately, open Pips Answers. If you want to replay a past board, use the Pips Archive to choose a date and difficulty.
After reviewing hints, you can return to the Pips2 homepage to play unlimited fresh Pips-style puzzles with no daily limit.
