Queens answer today
Place one crown in every row, column and coloured region, with no two crowns touching — not even diagonally. That last rule is what makes it hard.
The fastest technique isn’t placing crowns, it’s eliminating squares. Find the smallest colour region first: if it occupies only two rows, every other square in those rows is dead. Chain that logic and most boards collapse without a single guess.
Tango answer today
Fill the 6×6 grid with suns and moons so no three identical symbols sit in a row, and every row and column holds exactly three of each. The = and × signs between cells mean the two neighbours match or must differ.
Start with any pair of identical symbols already adjacent — the cells either side of them must both be the opposite symbol. That single rule usually opens up half the board.
Zip answer today
Draw one continuous path that visits every cell on the grid and passes through the numbered dots in order, 1 to the last.
Corners are the giveaway. A corner cell can only be entered and exited one way, so its two path segments are forced. Mark every corner first, then work inward from the fixed edges.
Pinpoint answer today
Five clues appear one at a time, and you name the category linking them. Guess after the first clue for the top score.
The first clue is deliberately broad and the trap is over-specifying. If clue one is “Mercury”, the answer is more likely to be a wide category — planets, elements, Roman gods, Queen members — than anything narrow. Hold off until clue two if you’re on a streak you care about.
Crossclimb answer today
Solve a ladder of four-letter words where each rung changes exactly one letter from the one before, then work out the top and bottom words that bracket the whole set.
Solve the middle rungs before the ends. The trivia clues for the top and bottom answers make far more sense once you can see the theme the ladder is building toward.
Patches answer today
Divide the whole grid into rectangles so that each one covers the number of cells its clue states, matches its shape icon, and contains exactly one clue.
Start with the clues that have only one possible size. A square clue is fully determined — a 9 must be 3×3 — and a prime number can only be a 1×N strip. Place those free moves first and the awkward “any shape” clues get squeezed into place by what’s left. Our full Patches guide works through the whole method.
Mini Sudoku answer today
A compact 6×6 take on classic Sudoku. Each row, each column and each 2×3 box holds the digits 1 to 6 exactly once.
On a 6×6 board, scanning beats guessing every time. Pick the digit that already appears most often across the grid and place its remaining copies first — with only six of each, two or three placements usually force the rest.
Wend answer today
LinkedIn’s newest release. Trace a route through the board according to the day’s constraints.
Wend is still new enough that LinkedIn is adjusting it, so treat published strategies with some caution — including ours. We verify each day’s solution by playing rather than by pattern-matching yesterday’s logic.

Answers from the past week
About LinkedIn Games
LinkedIn launched its puzzle suite in 2024 as a daily habit hook, and it has grown to eight games: four logic puzzles (Queens, Tango, Zip, Mini Sudoku), two word and trivia games (Pinpoint, Crossclimb) and the newer Patches and Wend. All are free, and you need a LinkedIn account to play and keep a streak.
Every game resets at midnight in your local time zone, which is why the countdown above runs on your own clock. Scores are shared to your connections only if you choose to post them — solving privately doesn’t appear on your feed.
Frequently asked questions
What time do LinkedIn Games reset?
Midnight local time. The timer above counts down to your next set.
Do I need LinkedIn Premium to play?
No. All eight games are free with any LinkedIn account.
Does using hints break my streak?
No. Hints cost you time on the leaderboard but the puzzle still counts as solved, and your streak continues.
Can I play yesterday’s puzzles?
LinkedIn keeps a limited archive within each game. The answers above cover the past week regardless.
Which LinkedIn game is hardest?
Queens is the usual answer, mostly because the no-touching-diagonally rule catches people out. Patches has the steepest learning curve for new players.
