About this printout
This page prints Mini #317 (Thursday, August 13, 2026): a 5×5 grid with two black squares and ten clues, five Across and five Down. The site's navigation and footer are left off the printout, and so are these notes.
Solving on paper
Paper has no Check button, so write lightly where you're unsure. The shortest slot, 1-Across, has only four letters, so it's a good place to start. The shortest clue is 8-Across, “365 days”, at two words; the longest is 1-Across, “Luxury German cars, in the plural”, at six words. None of the ten clues is a fill-in-the-blank, a quotation, a question-mark clue or a marked short form.
When you've finished, compare with the answer key for August 13, 2026, or open the hints if you get stuck. Prefer a screen? Play it online. The day before, Mini #316 (August 12, 2026), opens with 1-Across, “Chimp or gorilla”; the day after, Mini #318 (August 14, 2026), opens with 1-Across, “Bills and coins”.
