How to use clue answers without spoiling the fun
Start with the length filter: count the squares for the entry and ignore answers that don't fit. Then add any crossing letters you're sure of. If several answers still fit, look at the clue's tense and number — a clue ending in “-ed” wants a past-tense answer, and a plural clue wants a plural answer.
Can't find your clue? Our solver matches letter patterns against 170,000+ English words, and the anagram solver unscrambles letters for cryptic clues.
