How Pips works
Pips is a domino-placement logic puzzle. Fill the board with dominoes while meeting the condition shown for each marked region. Depending on the region, the rule may require an exact pip total, matching values, or a total below a stated threshold. Those are examples of rule types, not an exhaustive list.
