/// HOW TO SOLVE ///

How to Solve the Word Craze Daily Mini

5 steps to clear the board.

1
Start with the shortest clues
Short answers have fewer crossing tiles, so solving them first seeds the longer answers for free. The Mini is compact, so one early win often cascades through the whole board.
2
Count the tile slots before you commit
Each blank row shows you how many letters the answer has. Count before typing - a word that is one letter too long or short is wrong even if it looks right. Use the tile count to filter your first instinct.
3
Treat trailing question marks as wordplay signals
A "?" at the end of a clue signals a pun or lateral connection, not a straight definition. Re-read the clue sideways and the answer often clicks immediately.
4
Cross-reference the tiles you have already filled
Because the Mini is small, every answer shares tiles with at least one other. If you are stuck, look at which letters are already locked in from crossing answers and work backwards.
5
Commit early, correct fast
On a short board hesitation costs more than a wrong guess. Enter your best candidate, then use the crossing tiles to confirm or rule it out and move on.
