Slate Magazine publishes a series of “Pears” puzzles, with each installment described by the number of pears in that day’s puzzle. Across the listed games, the pear counts vary widely—from as low as two pears to as high as 11 pears.

The sources provided track several specific dates and game numbers. For example, Slate Pears Game 391 (Sept. 9, 2026) is reported as having two pears, while Slate Pears Game 371 (Aug. 20, 2026) is reported as having 11 pears. Other installments include counts of five, six, seven, eight, and four pears, depending on the game number and date.

All entries share the same basic format—each is a standalone puzzle page with a short description indicating the pear count for that particular installment. Because only brief summaries are supplied here, the differing “angles” across outlets are limited to differences in the reported pear counts and corresponding dates rather than differences in reporting style or additional claims.
