We’ve come, at last, to Friday and typically that means the easiest Mini Crossword of the week on the NYT Games App. Saturday starts the cycle anew, but I’ll be cycling off the rotation for a couple weeks. You can find my daily Pips and Wordle guides, however, here on my blog. If you’re not playing Pips yet, you should be. It’s great! And it’s free—unlike the Mini Crossword which the New York Times has tucked away behind a nefarious paywall. In any case, let’s solve today’s Mini Crossword!
Looking for Thursday’s NYT Mini Crossword? Here are some hints and answers.
The NYT Mini is a smaller, quicker, more digestible, bite-sized version of the larger and more challenging NYT Crossword. While it used to be free, in August the Mini was placed behind the NYT Games App paywall. This has led to a noticeable decline in people playing the game, unfortunately. You can check out all of the NYT Games, free and paid, right here.
