How to play Crossword

Fill the grid from the clues.

These are the rules for the PlayBurst version. Other versions may play differently.

Rules and controls

  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.
