How to Play Mini Crossword Unlimited

Mini Crossword Unlimited serves a fresh 5x5 grid every round instead of one a day. Same rules: every across and down entry is a real word in your language, every entry is clued, and the clock runs while you fill it. Grids are built from the language's own vocabulary rather than translated from English, so the clues read natively. Check and Reveal are there when you want them. Free, no account.

How the Mini Crossword works

The Mini Crossword gives you a 5x5 grid with a handful of black squares. Every run of white squares across, and every run down, spells a real word in the language you are playing, and each of those entries carries its own clue - roughly ten clues on a grid you can finish in a few minutes.

The crossings are the puzzle. Each white square belongs to one across entry and one down entry at the same time, so a letter you are sure of in one direction is a letter you get for free in the other. That is why a mini crossword unlocks in bursts rather than being solved one clue at a time, and why a confident wrong answer is expensive: it can poison five other entries at once.

Nothing is graded while you type. Check marks the letters that are wrong when you ask, without telling you what the right ones are, and Reveal fills a single square or a whole entry outright. A solve that used a reveal still counts and still keeps your streak - it is shown and shared as assisted, because the score here is the clock.

Every grid is generated from the language's own vocabulary and its own clues, not translated from an English puzzle. That is a much higher bar than a single-word game: a language ships only once its clued word pool has been simulated across months of daily play without repeating itself or running dry.

Tips & Strategy

1
Start with the crossing-heavy entries

On a 5x5 every square is crossed, so the entry you can answer with the most confidence is worth more than the one you like the look of. Fill it and four or five other entries each gain a free letter.

2
Short entries are the cheap ones

Where a black square shortens an entry to four letters, the candidate list is much smaller than for a five-letter row. Those entries are the usual way into a grid that looks blank.

3
A plausible word in the wrong slot is worse than a blank

Because every square is crossed, a wrong entry poisons up to five others and you will spend longer un-believing it than you would have spent leaving it empty. If two answers fit a clue, leave it and come back once a crossing letter decides it.

4
Check before you rebuild

If a corner refuses to work, Check the entry rather than clearing it. Knowing that three of five letters are right turns a rewrite into a one-letter fix, and checks cost you nothing but the record of having used one.

5
The clock rewards flow, not speed

Time is the score, but the fastest solves are the ones that never backtrack. Reading both clues for a square before typing is almost always cheaper than typing twice.
