About the May 13, 2026 puzzle

The May 13, 2026 Daily Themed Crossword is a 13 x 13 grid with 68 clues — 33 across and 35 down. Puzzles tend to get harder as the week progresses, so a Wednesday grid sits where you would expect it in that run.

There is also a small 5x5 Mini published the same day — its answers are on the May 13 2026 Mini page. If a clue reappears in a later puzzle its own answer page is updated, so bookmarking the clue is more reliable than bookmarking the date. Older puzzles live in the archive. We are in no way affiliated with or endorsed by the publishers that created the game.
