How the daily puzzle works
Every day at midnight UTC, Crossword Puzzle Solver picks a new short clue and reveals a fresh set of empty boxes for the answer. Everyone who visits on the same day gets the exact same clue, so it's something you can compare notes on with friends or family — no accounts needed.
Type your guess into the boxes and hit Check answer. If you're stuck, Hint reveals one more letter at a time. Once you solve it, tap Share result to copy a short summary you can paste anywhere.
About streaks
Solving today's puzzle extends your streak only if you also solved yesterday's — miss a day and the streak resets. Your streak and solved history are stored privately in your browser's local storage; nothing is sent to a server, and nothing is shared unless you tap "Share result" yourself.

Frequently asked questions
When does the puzzle change?
A new clue unlocks every day at midnight UTC (Coordinated Universal Time), so the exact local time it changes for you depends on your timezone.
Is my progress saved if I close the tab?
Yes — your solved puzzles and streak are saved in your browser's local storage on this device, so they'll still be there next time you visit from the same browser. Switching browsers or devices, or clearing site data, will reset your saved progress.
What happens if I get it wrong?
Nothing bad — you can try again as many times as you like. We only track how many attempts it took so your shared result can reflect it, in the same spirit as other daily word games.
