About this printout

This page prints Mini #384 (Monday, October 19, 2026): a 5×5 grid with six 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 three letters, so it's a good place to start. The shortest clue is 3-Down, “Delicious!”, at one word; the longest is 1-Down, “Flower with white petals and a yellow center”, at eight words. Clue types to watch for:

  • Written as a quotation: 3-Down, “Delicious!”
  • Marked as a short form: 5-Down, “Abbr. after a company name”

When you've finished, compare with the answer key for October 19, 2026, or open the hints if you get stuck. Prefer a screen? Play it online. The day before, Mini #383 (October 18, 2026), opens with 1-Across, “Police officers, informally”.
