How a crossword works

  1. 1

    Every white cell holds one letter. Words run across (left to right) and down (top to bottom), crossing each other.

  2. 2

    Each word has a number in its first cell and a matching clue in the Across or Down list.

  3. 3

    Tap a cell or a clue to start typing. Tap the same cell again — or press Space — to switch between Across and Down.

  4. 4

    Stuck? Check a letter, a word or the whole puzzle, or reveal a letter to get going again.
