The NYT Mini Crossword is a shorter version of the regular New York Times Crossword. It usually comes with a 5x5 grid and a small set of Across and Down clues. The puzzle is designed for people who enjoy word games but do not want to spend too much time solving them.
The rules are simple. Read a clue and fill in the correct word in the numbered spaces. Across answers go from left to right, while Down answers move from top to bottom. Since the words share letters, solving one clue can also help you find another answer.
You can play the daily puzzle on the NYT Games website. It is a quick way to test your vocabulary and enjoy a little mental exercise during the day.
