Introduce a cryptic riddle into your day. Minute Cryptic is the fun, free and easy way to get up to speed with cryptic crossword clues - a puzzle style loved and obsessed over by solvers for over 100 years! Minute Cryptic started on TikTok and Instagram, with one video a day explaining a new cryptic crossword clue. Our fan-base exploded and kept asking for a game to play, so we made it! With the Minute Cryptic app, you get one cryptic clue per day, specially crafted for our audience based on their regular feedback on social media. You can dial up or down the difficulty of the clue by asking for a hint or revealing letters, and when you’ve solved it, each clue links to its video explanation. We’ve found that this has been a great way to introduce hundreds of thousands of people to cryptic crosswords. Our solvers agree: “Hands down the best website I have found this year. Love what you guys are doing!” “You have created a new daily routine for me these last couple of months. I didn't know about cryptic clues or crosswords before stumbling upon you guys, and you make it extremely accessible, fun and engaging.” “I love this project! Best part of my morning routine” “Wordle, Connections, Mini-crosswords on NYT would be the first thing I did as soon as I woke up in the morning. Minute Cryptic has replaced them." “I’m a newcomer to this puzzle and I absolutely love it. It’s frustrating in the best way, and the sense of accomplishment upon solving it is immense! Thank you for it” "Been playing Minute Cryptic for almost two weeks now and as someone who doesn't have the time for a full crossword puzzle, this has been scratching an itch real good. One word, big blast of fun. Like a triple espresso at 4pm" "No lie, Minute Cryptic is the first thing I think about each morning." “Just want to say thank you for all you’re doing with Minute Cryptic! I had always wanted to be able to tackle cryptic crosswords but found it difficult to know where to begin. Your videos but even more the guide to cryptic clues in the how to section have really unlocked it for me and now it’s one of the best parts of the day to work on the daily clue. Keep up the amazing work!” "I really appreciate your advice and posts. I thought cryptic crosswords were an impenetrable arcane art, beyond my reach. But you explain them really well." “Thank you for making cryptics so accessible! I've attempted to get into them before but could never really crack it. The video explanations are your killer feature—never get rid of them! Since the advent of Wordle there have been so many daily puzzle games of varying quality and Minute Cryptic is without a doubt the best one.” “I adore Minute Cryptic! I only recently got into cryptic crosswords and it’s been the best resource for learning how to do them I have been able to find.“ “Keep up the good work. Solving your puzzle every morning is the best way to start my day.” We're just getting started. Coming soon: mini cryptic crosswords, access to the archive and clue submissions!}

I really like crosswords but cryptics have always been too daunting to me (I never knew where to even start). Not any more! I love this app because I can now learn how to solve the clues either by using the hints or if I’ve solved it by dumb luck, I can work backwards to see how I could have solved it without the guess work. I also really enjoy the accompanying videos that show how abstract some of the answers are and how an experienced cryptic crossword solver goes about finding that answer.

I used to the app to make an account, only to be told you have to manage membership on their website. However I didn’t see a clear link to their website. Only a link to preorder the book. I was going to get a membership to do back puzzles and such but I will just stick with the puzzle of the day, which is nice!

I have been into connections, wordle, globle, worldle and many of the other daily challenges and these are by far the best and most creative challenges I’ve seen. Definitely worth the membership for the weekly minis and the create your own puzzles.

I’ve been interested in cryptics for a while but found full puzzles inaccessible. MinuteCryptic is the perfect way to learn through daily clues an explanations. I have a 300+ day streak and have gotten so much better!

The game itself is great, but in order to track stats you have to create an account. To create an account requires an emailed code, but the delay between requesting the code and actually receiving it results in the code no longer being valid when you try to enter it. Super frustrating!

I love this app, and really enjoy how fun the daily games are. Unfortunately it no longer reminds you at the end of the day if you’ve forgotten to do your daily puzzle! Got to 174 days and then missed a day without the reminder notification! Super sad day for me, now I have to start again!!!

I now wake up to this game every morning. I’ve been playing it on safari for a while. Great to see it has its own app! It would be great to see a Mini-crossword edition as well :) maybe added in the future. But the simplicity of the app is maybe what makes it so appealing. I can feel myself (slowly) getting better at this… Hurrah!
