The Bambu Lab P1S quickly became the go-to 3D printer for many, and everyone (including me) has been waiting for the P2S to come out. Now that it’s been out for a few months, how does it stack up to its predecessor? I’d say the Bambu Lab P2S is better in almost every way, but a few things hold it back from its true potential as the next 3D printing king.

Remi Cruz Parsons has spent more than a decade inviting viewers into her life. What began with room makeovers and lifestyle vlogs has evolved into a deeply loyal audience of millions that has followed her through every era, from YouTube uploads filmed in her parents' house to podcasts, live tours, and now, her first cookbook.

With her new cookbook, Let's Get Cooking: Everyday Meals, Tipsy Favorites and Comfort Food Cravings, the 31-year-old creator is bringing one of the most beloved parts of her content into readers' homes. Filled with comfort food, Korean recipes inspired by her family, easy weeknight dinners, and dishes longtime viewers will instantly recognize from her vlogs, the book feels like a natural extension of the world she has built online.

We spoke with Remi about building a career online, finding longevity as a creator, protecting your privacy, and why cooking has become one of the most intimate ways she connects with her audience.

Remi Cruz Parsons: I mean, I feel like I've grown up with everybody. We've all grown up. It's been fun to grow up with everyone and go through similar experiences together.

I was looking at the very first video on your YouTube channel, posted 13 years ago. It was a room tour.

There were more, but they're all private, so I need to go back and private them.

In it, you're talking alking about Pretty Little Liars. That was my life.

I love meeting people my age because it feels like we were all doing the same things at the same time. Obviously, the internet has changed tremendously, but I'm still doing room tours.

Cooking has really become a big part of your content for many years. But at what point were you like, "OK, this is what people are connecting with"?

It was probably right around before COVID or during quarantine. At the time, I was making so much lifestyle content — room tours, beauty, fashion, all of that — and I still genuinely love those things. But I remember feeling like I was at a crossroads creatively. I didn't feel as inspired by some of the lifestyle content anymore, and I wanted to challenge myself in a different way.

So I sat down and thought, "What do I really love doing?" And the answer was cooking. I loved cooking, I loved posting about it, and I realized I wanted to explore that more seriously. I still wanted to keep doing everything else because I genuinely enjoy it, but I also wanted to see what it would look like to really dive into the cooking world.

2020 really was the year so many people realized they wanted to turn their hobbies into something bigger.

And also, pretty much all I did was cook all day. I was like, well, if I'm vlogging too, this is perfect.

And people were really connecting with it.

Yeah, that’s why I feel really lucky. Throughout all the different journeys of my life and all the content that I’ve made, I’ve just been able to show what I’m genuinely doing and fall in love with it on camera. Whether it was DIY room decor or cooking, it wasn't even a conscious thought. It was just, this is what I’m doing at the time, and people happen to be in similar places in their lives.

It's because your audience really gravitates toward you.

That’s the dream for a content creator, though. So I feel very lucky.

When you were deciding which recipes should be in the book, what was that process like?

I sat down and thought about the fact that I vlog pretty much every day of my life, even if it’s just little moments here and there. I also dedicated the book to my viewers because I wouldn't have any of these opportunities without them.

So I wanted the book to feel really authentic to the content I make, where viewers could pick it up and feel like there are little “if you know, you know” moments. But I also wanted it to appeal to people who are just walking through a bookstore.

I ended up laying it out almost like a Remi Life vlog. The chapters are split up based on the kinds of things you see in my content. There's a grab-and-go breakfast chapter because I’m always running late or driving to the podcast studio and eating in the car. There’s a Korean chapter, which is really where I found my love for my culture and learned how to cook. There's a weeknight dinner chapter because sometimes I come home after a long day and I don't want to cook, but I still need to eat. I also love hosting. In my vlogs, I'm always posting holiday content, family gatherings, or any excuse to throw a party. So it’s nice because there’s variety, but it also feels really true to my life and my audience.

"Let's Get Cooking: Everyday Meals, Tipsy Favorites and Comfort Food Cravings" Credit: Simon & Schuster If someone picked up this book in a bookstore and had never watched your content before, what's the one recipe that feels most like you?

My gut reaction is the cheesy potato casserole. I’m actually making it tomorrow on the Today Show, which makes me so happy because I think it might have been the first recipe I learned to make. My mom always made it growing up, and every holiday, my brother and I would skip the turkey and just eat piles of that. Eventually, my mom was like, "I need help in the kitchen. You can take over this recipe." That felt like such an honor.

Now, every Thanksgiving, Christmas, or family gathering, it's always on the menu. Even my husband asked if we should start doing mac and cheese for holidays, and I was like, no — this is our thing. It's comforting, everyone loves a casserole, and it’s honestly really easy to make.

I love any kind of one-pot meal situation.

Truly. Minimal cleanup, and it’s all basically done in maybe an hour and a half.

You've been on the internet for a long time and shared your life with millions of people, but cooking is its own form of intimacy. What has it been like to share this part of yourself?

I love the idea of cooking being intimate because it’s so true. To me, the kitchen is sacred. It’s the heart of the home. So for people to bring the book into their kitchens and hopefully incorporate these recipes into their holidays or weeknights or family traditions — that's really special. Even seeing people recreate my recipes is so nerve-wracking because I want them to love it as much as I do. But it's also incredibly rewarding. I saw someone on TikTok who got the book early and made my chocolate cookies, which I developed after having a Levain cookie years ago and thinking, "This is the best cookie I've ever had." I wanted to figure out how to make a thick, cakey cookie like that. Now I keep the dough in my freezer all the time so I can make one whenever I've had a bad day or a good day. Watching her make them and react to them felt so intimate. I was sitting on the edge of my seat watching her review the recipe. She said she had to go for a walk because she ate the whole plate. It made me so happy.

It must be surreal to see something you created take on new lives when people start making it themselves.

Totally. My dream is for someone to make the potato casserole or another recipe from the book and have it become part of their family tradition.

You've been creating content for more than a decade now. When you look back at those older videos, do you see something that you instinctively understood about building an audience?

I do. The old content was definitely very of its time, and I cringe a little sometimes, but I’m also so grateful for that younger version of myself. I wouldn’t be sitting here if it weren’t for those videos and the courage it took to post them. It's also really fun seeing creators who are just starting out now because the creator environment is so different.

When I started, it wasn’t a real job. I had to spend so much time convincing my parents to let me post videos in the first place, and then convincing them to let me take a break from school to pursue it full-time. Now it feels so much more accepted. I remember my first PR package. It was from ColourPop, and I was so excited. My dad was like, "Do not give our address to strangers." But I was like, "No, you don’t get it. This is going to be my life." And I was right.

I see that a lot with first- and second-generation kids, too. Your parents came here with one idea of success in mind, and then you've built something completely different.

Totally. Both of my parents immigrated from Korea. My mom always wanted me to go into medicine, and my dad was more like, "Do what you want, but still go to school." Getting them to let me take a break from school was such a huge conversation. But now they're my biggest supporters. My mom is in the book, her recipes are in the book, her photos are in the book. I posted a vlog this morning where I showed my parents the book for the first time, and my mom was hysterically crying before I even pulled it out. It was really sweet.

Remi Cruz Parsons and her husband Credit: Courtesy of Remi Cruz Parsons You mentioned how much the internet has changed. How have you had to rethink your strategy as a creator now versus when you first started?

When I started, it was basically just YouTube. Then Instagram came along, then TikTok, and I'm sure there will be more platforms in the future. One of the biggest things I’ve learned is how to adapt and evolve with those changes. For a long time, I was so used to long-form content, and I'm still teaching myself how to do short-form. It’s funny because when I talk to shortform creators, they’re like, "How do you do longform?" It's like your brain works one way or the other. If I post a 10-minute vlog on TikTok, it's not going anywhere. You have to learn hooks and make things short and punchy.

But beyond the platforms, I think I've also learned to be more thoughtful about what I share. I've always been very open about my life, and that's one of my strengths because people really connect to it. But it can also be a weakness. I think doing podcasts and other projects has taught me to be more aware of the audience and to think carefully about what I want to share and what I want to keep private.

That's really important. I see so many younger creators sharing everything — where they live, posting from their location in real-time — without realizing how much they're revealing.

Absolutely. Years ago, I did a full empty-house tour when I moved, and now things feel different. The internet feels scarier. People are smarter. People can figure things out more easily. Now I’m much more careful about not posting in real-time or giving too much away.

It's also about protecting your mental health.

Exactly. Everything you do online gets put under a microscope. So it becomes a question of, what am I willing to share if it’s going to be scrutinized, perceived, or discussed by strangers? That applies to relationships, family, all of it.

You've built this incredible relationship with your audience, and now you have the cookbook, the podcast, and multiple channels. How do you expand without making it feel like you're just selling something to your followers?

I never want anything to feel like a cash grab. I only want to do things that feel authentic and that I genuinely want to do. At the end of the day, I’m the one showing up and writing the recipes and making the content. There are things people always tell me I should do, like merch, but if I’m not ready, I’m not ready. With the book, I learned early on that it’s such a long process. It took almost three years. At first I thought, "I'm not ready right now," but then I realized, "That’s OK, because I’ll be ready by the time it comes out."

I think newer creators feel a lot of pressure to capitalize on everything immediately.

Totally. Alisha [Marie] and I talk about this all the time. We feel really lucky to have had longevity because we never expected any of this. But I see so many creators going nonstop, and I just don't think there's longevity in that. That's how you burn out. At the end of the day, even if you have a team, you're still the person who has to show up, film, post, and keep going. I wish people talked about that more.

What do you think is the key to longevity?

I think it's just being yourself, as cliché as that sounds. For me, it never feels like work because I’m not playing a character. I can be talking to you right now, turn the camera on, and be the exact same person online. I think that’s what makes it sustainable.

I'm sure the launch of this cookbook is making you think differently about success. What does success mean to you now versus when you first started?

When I was younger, success was numbers. Subscribers, views, all of that. Now I really try to focus on my core community — whether that’s people who have watched my videos since day one, people who found me through the podcast, or people who are newer to my content. I focus on the people who are genuinely excited about what I make and who inspire me to keep creating. It's easy to just see numbers on a screen and forget there are actual people behind them.

That's why meetups and tours are so meaningful. Alisha and I went on tour last summer, and seeing people in real life changes everything. Sometimes people tell me, "I only get 500 views on my videos," and I’m like, 500 people is still a lot of people. You have to think about them as actual individuals.

Those interactions matter more to me now than anything else.

I interview a lot of musicians, too, and it's similar. Maybe they're never going to sell out a stadium, but they can fill a theater with people who know every word.

Exactly. I'd rather have a small theater full of people singing every lyric than a stadium where people got free tickets and barely know who I am.

What excites you most about creating content these days?

Honestly, it’s the feedback and the community. I love the inside jokes, the comments that make me laugh, and seeing how people interact with everything. It feels like such a close-knit community between the podcast listeners, vlog viewers, TikTok audience, all of it. I'm always excited to post and see what people are saying.

So you do read comments?

I do. Unless I'm having a bad mental health day, then maybe not. But for the most part, yes. I've been doing this long enough that I know what to expect. And because we post so much content, especially with the podcast, it creates such an active community. We post two one-hour podcast episodes every week, which naturally leads to many conversations and much community-building.

Now, being a podcast host really means being a content creator too.

Totally. Alisha and I started our podcast eight years ago, and at the time, we were among the first YouTube creators to do so. Our agent called and said, "What do you think about podcasts?" and we were like, "What? Why would anyone want to hear us talk?" We did audio-only for the first three years, and now everything is video. Most people watch podcasts instead of just listening to them. It's wild seeing how much it's changed.

I usually listen while I'm working, but I also see podcast clips everywhere on my social feeds.

Same. We’re constantly recording and thinking, "Clip that. That’s a good clip."

Do you feel like each platform has a different audience?

A little bit, but honestly, I see a lot of the same people everywhere. I'll see inside jokes from the podcast show up in TikTok comments or YouTube comments. People will say things like, "I saw this in the vlog first." I'm sure there are people who only watch TikTok or only listen to the podcast, but for the most part, it feels like a really loyal audience that follows me everywhere.

And with the cookbook, you'll probably bring in a whole new audience.

That's what I’m hoping for. Maybe some aunties, too.

Obviously, all the recipes are your favorites, but if you had to pick one?

I have to go back to the Korean chapter. The tteokbokki recipe is really special to me. I remember moving out on my own and craving it, but not knowing how to make it. I FaceTimed my mom, and she walked me through it step by step.

Growing up, there was always a crockpot of tteokbokki at family parties. That's my ultimate comfort food. Whenever I go to Korea, if it's on the menu, I'm ordering it. That recipe just has so much history and meaning for me.

When it comes to web browsers, I bet most of us don't really want them to change. Browsing the web has become such an integral part of our lives that any little "upgrade" can feel like a huge hassle to get used to. Now, however, Google has turned one of the most basic Chrome features on its head, and we still think you should give it a try.

On Tuesday, Google launched vertical tabs in Chrome. Yes, instead of having the tabs horizontally strewn out above the URL bar, you can have them neatly ordered in a long list on the browser window's left side.

I'm the first to admit that this is a change I don't want to get used to, having browsed roughly the same way since the early days of Firefox (tabbed browsing was largely popularized by Firefox in 2002, even though there were browsers and add-ons that did it earlier).

But having your tabs laid out vertically does have some advantages. For example, when you have a ton of tabs open (I always do), they become so small that it gets hard to read which one is which. Having them on the left makes this easier to manage, as a big chunk of the tab's headline stays visible (you can, however, greatly reduce the vertical tab bar's size so that it only shows icons).

No more guessing what's what. Credit: Google

The feature is fully optional, and can be enabled by right clicking on the tab bar and selecting "Show Tabs Vertically." If you don't see it, don't worry; Google says the feature is currently rolling out, so it'll probably show up in your Chrome soon.

The vertical tabs feature showed up in Google's Chrome Canary (experimental build for developers) back in Nov. 2025, in slightly different format, but it was now made available to everyone.

Google also added a full-page interface for reading mode, making it even more distraction-free. To see how it looks, right-click on any page and select "Open in reading mode."

There’s a point where using AI stops feeling efficient and starts feeling fragmented. One tab for writing, another for research, another for images, and suddenly your “productivity boost” looks more like tab overload.

ChatOn takes a different approach. Instead of committing to just one model or tool, it brings multiple leading AI systems — like GPT, Claude, and Gemini — into a single, streamlined platform. The result is a more flexible, less cluttered way to actually use AI day to day.

The benefits here are convenience and choice. Different models are better at different things. Some are stronger at reasoning, others at writing or summarizing. With ChatOn, you can switch between them depending on the task, without bouncing between apps or subscriptions.

It’s also built to go beyond basic chat. You can generate images or videos from prompts, edit photos, summarize documents, or extract text using OCR — all inside the same interface. For anyone working across content, research, or planning, that kind of all-in-one setup can simplify your workflow more than you’d expect.

Real-time web search adds another layer, pulling in up-to-date information with sources when you need to fact-check or explore a topic further. And with cross-platform access, you can move from your phone to your laptop without missing a beat.

What makes ChatOn stand out is how it keeps things fresh without making them complicated. You’re not locked into one way of working; you’re just given better options, all in one place.

This is an easy way to consolidate your AI tools and make them actually feel like a productivity upgrade again.

Well we’re doing it all again in 2026, except this time, we’re inviting you to nominate the content creators you think should be on our list.

We're looking for the digital voices carving out a niche for themselves in the past year, the ones who are using their platform to inform, entertain, or delight — and who our readers believe deserves a fast follow.

Send us your nominations and tell us why your favorite creator deserves to be our very first Mashable 101 Fan Fave.

After the nomination period, we’ll put our finalists to a vote. You'll be able to weigh in once more and rally around the creators you love most.

The Mini is a bite-sized version of The New York Times' revered daily crossword. While the crossword is a lengthier experience that requires both knowledge and patience to complete, The Mini is an entirely different vibe.

With only a handful of clues to answer, the daily puzzle doubles as a speed-running test for many who play it.

So, when a tricky clue disrupts a player's flow, it can be frustrating! If you find yourself stumped playing The Mini — much like with Wordle and Connections — we have you covered.

TL;DR: Walmart has the Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution Ascended Heroes Elite Trainer Box listed for $129.99, while Amazon sellers start at $133. That puts Walmart about $3 below Amazon and $4.89 below market price.

Ascended Heroes Elite Trainer Box pricing has been all over the place since the Pokémon TCG’s Mega Evolution expansion landed, with ETBs quickly jumping above MSRP and hovering well above where many collectors would want to buy in. Steadily though, sellers at Walmart are attempting to undercut the competition. 

As of April 8, Walmart has the Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution Ascended Heroes Elite Trainer Box listed for $129.99, down from $149.99. Over at Amazon, third-party sellers currently have it starting at $133. TCGplayer’s current market price is $134.88, with the most recent unopened sale matching that figure. That leaves Walmart as the cheapest of the bunch, undercutting Amazon by about $3 and landing nearly $5 below TCGplayer’s live market value.

Ascended Heroes is the priciest recent expansion in the trading card game right now, so you’re effectively paying $14.44 per booster pack before even factoring in the exclusive extras.

Inside the ETB, you are getting nine Ascended Heroes booster packs, a full-art foil promo card featuring N’s Zekrom, 65 card sleeves, 40 Energy cards, a player’s guide, six damage-counter dice, a competition-legal coin-flip die, a plastic coin, a collector’s box with six dividers, and a code card for Pokémon TCG Live.

The Ascended Heroes pulls like Mega Gengar ex ($1,100+), Pikachu ex ($760+), and Mega Dragonite ex ($690+) mean even ETBs that are only slightly below market value will sell out quickly. With that in mind, we recommend buying at this new best price while you can. 

For more Ascended Heroes boosters, you can also buy the Pokémon TCG First Partners Deluxe Pin Collection for just over market price. As for the latest expansion, the Pokémon TCG Perfect Order Booster Bundle is priced at around $43 at Walmart. 

TL;DR: Amazon has the Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution Perfect Order Elite Trainer Box listed for $79.99, while TCGplayer listings start at $63.34 plus shipping. Against TCGplayer’s current $71.25 market price and $80 listed median, this ETB is looking like a strong buy right now.

Perfect Order pricing has been steadily dropping off, now with ETBs available for under $80 across multiple retailers. 

As of April 8, Amazon has the Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution Perfect Order Elite Trainer Box listed for $79.99. Over on TCGplayer, the lowest listing is $63.34 plus shipping. Multiple other sellers are offering unopened boxes for around $73.35 to $73.43 with shipping included. That puts TCGplayer closest to its own $71.25 market price, while Amazon is now just under TCGplayer’s $80 listed median — a much better place for this ETB to land.

That lower pricing also lines up with how the ETB has been moving more broadly. Over the past three months, as preorders went live, the unopened market price has dropped by more than 50%, which helps explain why more listings are now landing in the low-$70 range instead of the much higher prices Perfect Order ETBs were seeing closer to release.

Perfect Order Elite Trainer Boxes will include nine booster packs (each holding 10 trading cards), a full-art foil promo card featuring Tyrunt, 65 card sleeves, Energy cards, a player’s guide to the expansion, damage-counter dice, a collector’s box with dividers, and a code card for Pokémon Trading Card Game Live. Among those packs, you’ll have the chance to pull cards from the Mega Evolution Perfect Order expansion, including Mega Zygarde ex, Mega Clefable ex, Mega Starmie ex, and Meowth ex, among a wider selection of 120 cards themed around the Pokémon Legends: Z-A game.

For even more booster packs from this latest Pokémon TCG expansion, you can still grab the Perfect Order Booster Bundle for around $43 at Walmart. Meanwhile, you can also buy the Pokémon TCG Ascended Heroes First Partners Deluxe Pin Collection for just over market price.

It's been an emotional journey as always, but Shrinking Season 3 managed to end on its usual bittersweet note — leaving us equal parts sad and tentatively hopeful for Jimmy (Jason Segel) and the gang.

So what happened, what does it mean, and what might be next? Let's unpack.

SEE ALSO: The 41 best Apple TV shows, ranked How does Shrinking Season 3 end?

The entire main cast of Shrinking goes on a big journey in Season 3, with most of the core players ending the season at the start of a new life chapter: Alice (Lukita Maxwell) is heading to college, Liz (Christa Miller) and Derek (Ted McGinley) are off to Spain, Gaby (Jessica Williams) is engaged to other Derrick (Damon Wayans Jr.), Brian (Michael Urie) is going to Tennessee, Sean (Luke Tennie) is moving out, and Paul (Harrison Ford) has moved across the country to be near his daughter.

In other words, everybody is beginning an exciting new adventure — except Jimmy (Jason Segel), who suddenly finds himself facing a pretty lonely stretch without his friends and family around. To make things worse, he appears to have blown his chances with Sofi (Cobie Smulders), and his relationship with Paul is in tatters after their argument at the end of episode 10.

What happens between Jimmy and Paul?

Jimmy and Paul start the episode barely speaking to each other. They share some tense exchanges over the phone, but it's not until Paul is reprimanded by his daughter and Alice that he finally decides upon a Jimmy-style intervention.

He calls Jimmy and invites him to breakfast, but then instead of sitting down with him he pulls his colleague to one side for some real talk. We've copied their exchange, which feels like a key moment the show has been building to all season, below:

Paul: "Let me talk. OK? Life threw you a curveball. So to try and control things you picture how you want them to go in your own head. That doesn't work. If you can't let go of this shit on your own then I have to...I have to keep trying to shake it out of you. You hear what I'm saying?"

Jimmy: "Yeah I do, but can we just talk about this over waffles?"

P: "No, you're not eating with me. You're eating with her... [Paul points to Sofi, who's sitting at a table by herself.] Not how you pictured it, huh?"

J: "You fucking Jimmied me!"

P: "That's right, I fucking Jimmied you! Look kid, if you're ever gonna move forward, you've gotta let go of the past. And I know that's scary. But you...you're never gonna forget Tia. Hell, you're never gonna forget me. No one will. Letting go of the past just means you don't allow your scars to hold you back anymore."

J: "I'm covered in them, Paul."

P: "Good. What a shame to be 42 years of age and not completely covered in scars. They're the evidence of a life fully lived."

J: "I don't want this. I don't want you to have to fly all across the fucking country just to make sure that I'm OK. I don't want to be a burden to you."

P: "You're not. You're more of a son to me. I don't know why I never said that before. I think you're strong. I think you don't need me. But for as long as I'm around, if you think you need me, I will be there for you. Because I love you. OK?"

J: "OK."

P: "Now you got a choice to make. Either stay stuck, or you can go make some new scars."

After a moment's hesitation, Jimmy does exactly what we're all willing him to: He goes into the restaurant, sits down opposite Sofi, and starts talking.

Will Jimmy finally be able to move forward?

Shrinking has been renewed for a fourth season, which means it won't be long before we find out how Jimmy and Sofi's breakfast went.

Don’t miss out on our latest stories: Add Mashable as a trusted news source in Google.

But while Season 3 ended on a note of tentative hope for all the characters, we know Shrinking is never plain sailing. The new season is bound to come with a fresh set of challenges for all the characters, and we can't imagine Jimmy's foray into dating will be any exception.

The main issue we can see? With all of his close friends and Alice gone, it feels like there might be a lot of pressure placed on Jimmy's budding connection to Sofi. And with Paul across the country, despite what he says about being there for Jimmy, the distance might still prove a strain on their friendship.

Shrinking Season 3 is now streaming on Apple TV.

If you like playing daily word games like Wordle, then Hurdle is a great game to add to your routine.

There are five rounds to the game. The first round sees you trying to guess the word, with correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters shown in each guess. If you guess the correct answer, it'll take you to the next hurdle, providing the answer to the last hurdle as your first guess. This can give you several clues or none, depending on the words. For the final hurdle, every correct answer from previous hurdles is shown, with correct and misplaced letters clearly shown.

An important note is that the number of times a letter is highlighted from previous guesses does necessarily indicate the number of times that letter appears in the final hurdle.

Welcome to your guide to Pips, the latest game in the New York Times catalogue.

Released in August 2025, the Pips puts a unique spin on dominoes, creating a fun single-player experience that could become your next daily gaming habit.

Currently, if you're stuck, the game only offers to reveal the entire puzzle, forcing you to move onto the next difficulty level and start over. However, we have you covered! Below are piecemeal answers that will serve as hints so that you can find your way through each difficulty level.

How to play Pips

If you've ever played dominoes, you'll have a passing familiarity for how Pips is played. As we've shared in our previous hints stories for Pips, the tiles, like dominoes, are placed vertically or horizontally and connect with each other. The main difference between a traditional game of dominoes and Pips is the color-coded conditions you have to address. The touching tiles don't necessarily have to match.

SEE ALSO: Wordle today: Answer, hints for April 8, 2026

The conditions you have to meet are specific to the color-coded spaces. For example, if it provides a single number, every side of a tile in that space must add up to the number provided. It is possible – and common – for only half a tile to be within a color-coded space.

Here are common examples you'll run into across the difficulty levels:

• Number: All the pips in this space must add up to the number.

• Equal: Every domino half in this space must be the same number of pips.

• Not Equal: Every domino half in this space must have a completely different number of pips.

• Less than: Every domino half in this space must add up to less than the number.

• Greater than: Every domino half in this space must add up to more than the number.

If an area does not have any color coding, it means there are no conditions on the portions of dominoes within those spaces.
