Overview
Today’s mini crossword on Puzzle Junkies is built from the same curated wordlist we use for print-quality puzzle books. Clues are written for humans, not auto-filled from a thesaurus, so solvers get a fair challenge in a small grid that fits a short break.
Open the page in any modern browser to fill cells interactively. A timer and completion summary help you track improvement over the week. When midnight rolls over, a brand-new grid replaces yesterday’s — perfect for a daily ritual before work or after dinner.

How to play
- Read each Across and Down clue; answers meet at shared letters.
- Type letters into highlighted cells; use check or reveal options only if you need accessibility help.
- Finish when every white cell is correct and the congratulation modal appears.
Strategy tips
- Scan for fill-in-the-blank clues first — they constrain crossing entries.
- Look for plural/singular agreement in crossing words.
- If you are stuck, jump to a different corner and return with fresh eyes.
