Tips for the Daily Puzzle

• Tackle easier categories first: Start with the theme that feels most familiar - completing one category builds momentum for the rest.
• Use short words as anchors: 3- and 4-letter words are quick wins that reveal letter positions and help you spot the longer answers.
• Switch categories if stuck: If one theme has you stuck, move to another - solving different words often sparks fresh ideas for the tricky category.
