Daily mini crossword
One shared 9 by 9 mini every UTC day, with a topic chosen from our question bank.
How to play
Use the numbered Across and Down clues to fill the white squares. Each answer is one word. Shared squares belong to both answers, and black squares separate the words.
Tap a square to select its word; tap the same square again to switch between Across and Down at a crossing. Tap a clue to jump to its first square. Type letters on your phone keyboard or computer, use Backspace to erase, and use arrow keys to move on a computer.
Check word checks the selected answer; Check puzzle checks every square. Squares that need another look are highlighted. Reveal fills every answer and shows the answers list. The timer starts with your first letter and stops when every answer matches. Share your result when you finish.

Tips
Start with a clue you know, then use its crossing letters to narrow the other answers. The number in brackets tells you how many letters to enter.
A criss-cross layout has black squares around the interlocking words. Work through both clue lists, and use the highlighted clue above the board to keep your place on a phone.
