All LinkedIn Games — Complete Guide
LinkedIn launched its daily games suite in May 2024 to give professionals a quick mental break during the workday. There are now 8 games — including linkedin games wend, Queens, Tango, Pinpoint, Patches, and more — with Wend the newest addition in June 2026.
All games are free to play with a LinkedIn account at linkedin.com/games. The linkedin wend game can also be played here without a login.
Wend
NEWTrace four hidden words through a 5x5 grid by connecting adjacent letters. Words snake around gray wall blocks and every open tile must be used exactly once. The wend game linkedin version resets daily — practice unlimited here.
Top tip
Start with the longest word. The 6-letter word is most constrained by the walls, so placing it first usually reveals where the shorter words must go.
Queens
Place one queen in each row, column, and color region so that no two queens touch — including diagonally. A pure logic puzzle with no word component.
Top tip
Start with the most constrained color region. If a region covers only one row or column, the queen position for that region is locked in immediately.
Tango
Fill the grid with suns and moons so that each row and column has an equal number of each, no three identical symbols appear in a row, and the equals or cross signs between cells are satisfied.
Top tip
Look for cells where the balance rule forces a symbol. If a row already has three suns on one side of a cross sign, the cell on the other side must be a moon.
Pinpoint
Five clue words are revealed one at a time. Guess the single category that connects them all before all five are shown. Pinpoint linkedin is one of the most popular games in the suite — fewer reveals means a higher score.
Top tip
Resist the first obvious connection. LinkedIn Pinpoint clues often have a misleading surface reading — the real category usually becomes clear on the third or fourth clue.
Crossclimb
Answer trivia clues to fill in a word ladder where each rung differs from the one above by a single letter. Then rearrange the rungs in the correct order.
Top tip
Solve the clues you know first. Even one solved rung gives you letter constraints that make the adjacent rungs much easier to figure out.
Zip
Draw a single continuous path through a numbered grid, visiting every cell exactly once and passing through numbered waypoints in order from 1 to the highest number.
Top tip
The numbered waypoints are fixed checkpoints. Work backwards from each number to figure out which direction the path must approach from to avoid getting boxed in.
Patches
Group patterned tiles into regions so that each region contains exactly the number of tiles shown on its label. Patches linkedin is one of the newer additions to the suite, with matching patterns grouped together.
Top tip
Start from regions with the smallest numbers — single-tile or two-tile regions have almost no flexibility, so their boundaries are nearly fixed from the start. LinkedIn patches resets daily just like all other linkedin games.
