Mini Crossword
The NYT Mini is a quick and dirty version of the newspaper's larger and long-running crossword. Most days, there are between three and five clues in each direction on a five by five grid, but the puzzles are sometimes larger, especially on Saturdays.
Unlike its larger sibling, the NYT Mini crossword is free to play on the New York Times website or NYT Games app. However, you’ll need an NYT Games subscription to access previous puzzles in the archives.
The NYT Mini is a fun daily distraction that usually takes no time at all. I try to beat the standard weekday grid in less than a minute. But sometimes I can't quite figure out one or two clues and need to reveal the answer.
To help you avoid doing that, here are the NYT Mini Crossword answers (spoilers lie ahead, of course):
ACROSS
1) Something made of gold or onion – RING
5) Title for a Mideast ruler – EMIR
6) "Jeopardy!" round with just one clue – FINAL
8) ___ baby – NEPO
9) Competed in Pictionary – DREW

1) Soccer official – REF

7) Flo Rida hit with the lyric "Apple Bottom jeans, boots with the fur" – LOW
Mini
Not that bad of a puzzle today if you ask me. Starting with Ref was pretty easy and I mean, what other flavor is a purple skittle going to be? Plum? The blank baby clue could have been literally anything, but nepo baby is such a common thing now that I picked that up after one letter. Then, it was Final Jeopardy. No literally, that was the last clue I did. Not great.
