How to play Daily Pocket Crossword
Daily Pocket Crossword puts a small set of across and down answers in one crossing grid. Each filled square helps two clues, so a short answer you know can unlock a less obvious one.
- Read the across and down clues and select a clue or a white letter cell.
- Type letters into the grid. Check the crossing answer whenever a letter seems uncertain.
- Choose Check crossword to see how many clues are complete and which entered letters need another look.
- Continue editing until every clue is correct, or choose Reveal and finish to end the attempt and see the filled grid.
Plan your next move
Start with the clue whose answer you know most confidently. Use those letters as a pattern for an intersecting answer, then read the entire clue again before filling it. A word that fits the available squares still needs to fit the clue's meaning.
If two answers conflict, reconsider the less certain one first. Check crossword gives feedback without automatically ending an incomplete attempt. This makes it useful for finding an early error before it affects the rest of the grid.
What does the score count?
The game counts completed across and down answers. A correct letter can contribute to two crossing answers, but a clue earns credit only when its whole answer matches.
What happens when I reveal the grid?
Reveal and finish records the score from your current entries, fills in the answer and ends the attempt. Use it when you are ready to review rather than continue solving.
