About Puzzle Page Crossword, Diamond and Challenger

Puzzle Page Crossword is a daily crossword that leans a little easier than something like the New York Times puzzle, which makes it a solid pick if you want a quick brain workout without getting hung up for an hour on one clue. There are also Diamond and Challenger in Puzzle Page, which are crosswords but of different shapes and sizes.

What to Expect From the Clues

It’s a standard crossword grid, but the clues themselves tend to be more straightforward. You won’t run into as many puns or obscure references. Most clues describe exactly what the answer is.

That doesn’t mean it’s mindless. Shorter clues can still be vague enough to have a few possible answers and letter count is often your best tool for narrowing things down once you’ve got a guess in mind.

Solving It Faster

Fill in the answers you’re sure about first. Those crossing letters do a lot of the work on the trickier clues. If a clue is genuinely ambiguous, it usually pays to think about the most common, everyday word that fits, since Puzzle Page rarely reaches for anything too obscure.
