A. game? Not sure what poet wrote "Two roads diverged in a wood, and I — I took the one less traveled by"? Don’t worry, because I'm here to help you with the answers for today's NYT Mini crossword. The NYT Mini is a quick and dirty version of the newspaper's larger and long-running crossword.
Most days, there are between three and five clues in each direction on a five by five grid, but the puzzles are sometimes larger, especially on Saturdays. Unlike its larger sibling, the NYT Mini crossword is free to play on the New York Times website or NYT Games app. However, you’ll need an NYT Games subscription to access previous puzzles in the archives.

It took me 1:12 to complete today's NYT Mini . Quite a few clues that didn’t click for me until much later than they should have in this one. NFL, for instance, is one that I should have gotten right away.
It was on the tip of my fingers, and then it wasn’t. I’m not sure that I’ve ever heard of a Slow LORIS. DUSKY, NOT UP and FROST gave me some trouble as well.
But as I started filling in the grid, I was able to start piecing together the answers I didn’t know together. I got there in the end, and that’s the most important thing. That’s it for me on our NYT Mini guides coverage for now.
I’ll be back for more speedy crosswording fun with you in a couple of weeks. If you need some help with Saturday ’s NYT Mini , make sure to check out Paul’s blog .
