How to solve the Mini
Click a square and type to fill the grid. Each clue is numbered and marked Across or Down; the answer runs from the numbered square in that direction. The timer starts when you open the puzzle, and completing the grid correctly stops it. There are no penalties for wrong letters, so experienced solvers fill fast and fix as they go.

Mini tips for tomorrow
- Fill the long answers first. In a 5x5 grid the five-letter entries give you a letter in every crossing. Start there.
- Read every clue once before typing. A quick scan usually reveals two or three gimmes that unlock the rest.
- Trust the crossings. If an Across answer feels wrong, check the Down words through it rather than guessing again.
