Quick tips for the NYT Mini Crossword

#1: If you’re unsure, put down an answer anyway, but remember your uncertainty. You might find yourself erasing that answer as other letters fill in.

#2: If you’re struggling with a few Across clues, skip to the Down side. You might be able to fill that in and find the Across clues solved for you.

#3: The puzzle-makers love to play little word games, so be on your guard. They may offer a clue where the words don’t mean the obvious. If you’re stumped, try thinking of secondary meanings for phrases in the clue.
