If you enjoy engaging in quick, gratifying puzzles, you’ve likely taken on The Mini, the compact edition of The New York Times’ renowned daily crossword. Unlike the larger crossword, which requires significant time, knowledge, and patience, The Mini focuses on speed and rapid thinking.

With only a handful of clues to tackle, many players view it as a daily race, striving to finish it in the shortest time possible. However, if a challenging clue disrupts your flow, it can be rather vexing. Not to fret — just like with Wordle and Connections, we’ve got your back if you find yourself stuck.
