How Pinpoint works

Each Pinpoint puzzle gives you five clues that all connect to one hidden theme — a category, an industry, a phrase template, anything. The clues run hardest to easiest: the first is usually cryptic, the fifth almost a giveaway. You earn 5 points for guessing after the first clue, dropping to 4, 3, 2, then 1 as each additional clue is revealed. A new puzzle drops every day at midnight UTC.
