How Crossword works

Fill the grid from the clues.

Read the full Crossword rules and tips
  1. 1. Pick a clue

    Tap a clue or a square. The squares it covers are highlighted, across or down.

  2. 2. Type the answer

    The keyboard comes up under the grid as soon as you tap, and not before. The letters land in the highlighted squares in order.

  3. 3. Cross-check

    Where a square belongs to a word across and a word down, a letter you are sure of gives you part of another answer.

Questions

About Crossword.

What is the goal of Crossword?

Fill the grid from the clues.

Is Crossword free?

Yes. Crossword is one of 48 games in PlayBurst, a single free app. It is free, nothing is locked in front of it, and no purchase in the app unlocks a game: the shop sells coins and removing the ads, and that is all it sells.

Can I play Crossword without a connection?

Yes. Crossword runs on your device rather than on a server, so it keeps working on a plane or in the back of a car. The first launch of PlayBurst reaches out once to set up your guest account, and opens anyway if it cannot.

Where can I get Crossword?

Nowhere yet. PlayBurst is not out on any store at the time of writing. The Amazon Appstore comes first, for Fire tablets, then Google Play and the App Store, and the links land on this page the day they exist.
