GOOD TO KNOW

How to play

Everything you need to settle into a puzzle.

Choose a square

Click or tap any open square to begin. Tap the same square again to switch between Across and Down when both answers use it.

Type naturally

Use your keyboard on desktop, or the on-screen keyboard on mobile. Letters advance through the current answer. Backspace clears the current letter and then moves backward.

Follow the clues

The active answer is softly highlighted and the selected square is bright. Select a clue from the list to jump directly to it, or use Previous and Next to move through the puzzle.
