How to solve the WSJ Crossword

Fill the grid so every Across and Down answer matches its clue. The title hints at the theme, and on Fridays a final instruction asks for the meta answer. Our answer pages list every clue with its answer behind a reveal button.

WSJ Crossword tips for tomorrow

  • Read the title first. WSJ titles are precise. They usually describe exactly how the theme entries are transformed.
  • Solve Friday twice. Fill the grid, then look for a pattern in the theme entries that spells or points to the meta answer.
  • Learn the editor's style. Mike Shenk favours tight wordplay. A clue that seems too literal probably has a second reading.
