About the December 16, 2021 Mini

The Daily Themed Mini Crossword is the small 5 x 5 companion to the main puzzle — 10 clues instead of the usual sixty-odd, so most players finish it in a couple of minutes. Answers here run three to five letters.

Looking for the full-size grid from the same day? It is on the Daily Themed Crossword December 16 2021 page. Every Mini we have solved is listed in the Mini archive. We are in no way affiliated with or endorsed by the publishers that created the game.
