PlusWord Game Rules

Fill the crossword entries so the across and down answers cross correctly. Once the grid is complete, collect the highlighted letters in the order indicated by the puzzle. Those letters form the PlusWord, which is the final answer for the daily challenge. A correct solve therefore has two stages: a valid crossword and a correctly extracted word.

  • Solve the crossword clues and enter the crossing answers.
  • Every letter must agree with both its across and down entry.
  • Read highlighted cells in the puzzle’s intended order.
  • The extracted PlusWord completes the daily puzzle.
