How to play Easy Crossword
Fill in the answers to the Across and Down clues. Each puzzle has a title that hints at its theme, which ties together the longest answers in the grid. A new easy crossword arrives every day.
Tips for solving
- Read the title first, then come back to it once you fill in a long answer. The theme usually clicks into place.
- Start with the clue you are most certain about, wherever it sits in the list.
- Work outward from answers you already have. Crossing letters make the next clue much easier.
- Take a break if you stall. Coming back later often reveals an answer that seemed hidden.
- Use Check to confirm a letter, a word or the full grid, or Reveal when you want an answer filled in.
