How embedding works

The rules

  • Every white square belongs to one answer across and one answer down.
  • Read a clue and type its answer into the grid. Where two answers cross, they share the letter.
  • The puzzle is solved when every square holds the right letter.

How to play here

  • Tap a square to select it. Tap it again to switch between across and down. The clue for the selected answer shows above the grid.
  • Type with the on-screen keyboard under the grid or with your own keyboard. The selection moves on to the next square.
  • Keyboard: the arrows move, Tab and Shift+Tab go to the next or previous clue, Space switches between across and down, Backspace erases.
  • On a wide screen the clue lists show beside the grid.
  • Undo takes back the last move, Check marks the wrong squares, and a hint shows where to look.

Difficulty levels

Level Grid Clues
Easy 5×5 the easiest
Medium 5×5 a little harder
Hard 6×6 harder
Expert 7×7 the hardest

Tips

  1. Start with the clues you are sure of. Each answer gives you letters in the answers that cross it.
  2. Short answers are often the easiest way in.
  3. Stuck on one clue? Go to the crossing answers first, then come back with some letters filled in.

FAQ

Which languages does it come in?
Hebrew today, so the demo on this page plays in Hebrew, right to left. English is coming soon.
How big is the grid?
5×5 at the easy and medium levels, 6×6 at hard and 7×7 at expert. The harder levels also use harder clues.
Do I get told when a letter is wrong?
Not while you type. Use Check to mark the wrong squares, or a hint to see where to look, then a letter, then the whole answer.
Is there a new puzzle every day?
Yes. A new Mini Crossword is published every day at each of the four levels: easy, medium, hard and expert. Earlier puzzles are in the archive.
Do I need an account to play?
No. You play right in your browser, with no sign-up and no cookies. Your progress is saved in your browser.
