About this puzzle

The NYT Midi Crossword sits squarely between the Mini and the full daily puzzle — usually a 7×7 or 9×9 grid that takes a confident solver about three to five minutes.

Tap any tile to reveal a single letter, or click a clue for the full breakdown with hints, letter analysis, and cross-puzzle history.
