Are you a fan of crossword puzzles but don't have the entire day to dedicate to solving a full-sized one from the newspaper? That's the purpose of The Mini!
The Mini is a compact version of the well-known New York Times crossword puzzle, providing a quick and easy way to challenge your crossword skills daily in significantly less time (the average puzzle takes players just over a minute to complete). Although The Mini is smaller and easier than a typical crossword, it can still pose a challenge. Getting stuck on one clue can mean the difference between achieving a personal best and a less-than-stellar solving attempt.
Just like our hints for Wordle and Connections, we are here to assist you with The Mini if you find yourself needing a little help.

Move over, Wordle: The New York Times has introduced a new puzzle game.
The New York Times has announced the next addition to its Games catalog following the success of Wordle — and it's centered around math. Digits challenges players to add, subtract, multiply, and divide numbers. You can currently play its beta for free online.
In Digits, players receive a target number to match. They are presented with six numbers and can use addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division to get as close to the target as possible. Not all numbers need to be utilized, making this game a true test of your math skills as you combine numbers and create equations to reach the target number.
Players receive a five-star rating for an exact match, three stars if they are within 10 of the target, and one star for being within 25 of it. At present, players have access to five different puzzles with progressively larger numbers. I solved today’s puzzle and found it to be an enjoyable number-based game that should appeal to those who love puzzle games like Threes or other New York Times offerings like Wordle and Spelling Bee.
In an article revealing Digits and outlining the New York Times Games team's development process, The Times mentions that the team will utilize this free beta to fix bugs and determine if it is worth advancing to a more active development phase "where the game is coded and the designs are finalized." Thus, play Digits while you can, as The New York Times may discontinue the project if it doesn't receive the desired response.
Digits' beta is currently available for free on The New York Times Games' website.

It represents a rare success story in gaming, reaching a wide audience due to its elegant simplicity.
Wordle’s fortunes escalated as rapidly as its user base. In late January 2022, the New York Times revealed it had acquired the puzzle game from creator Josh Wardle in an undisclosed, low-seven
