Best Online Free Crossword Puzzle Games

There are so many word puzzle games online that you sometimes don't know where to start. Crosswords have always been a big favorite for many people, so it's no surprise that they are still actively played online. Here's a list of the best online free crossword puzzle games to challenge yourself

Vox Crossword puzzle

You can play the Vox Crossword puzzle every day from Monday to Saturday. However, if you really want to complete one of their pop culture-decorated puzzles on a Sunday, you can check out their crossword archives that go back years.

The New York Times Mini Crossword puzzle

While the daily crossword puzzle is locked behind a subscription, you can still enjoy the New Your Times Mini Crossword. It's perfect if you are on transport or have to take up some time with nothing else to do. It's also fairly easy, so it definitely gives you a boost of confidence if you complete it, too.

Merriam-Webster The Missing Letter Crossword puzzle

If you're tired of the same old crosswords, then Merriam-Webster provides a unique twist with The Missing Letter Crossword. Use the 25 clues (which are definitions from their dictionary) to find the solution. Each solution starts with a different letter of the alphabet, so when you finish them all, you will find the unused 26th letter.

The Atlantic Crosswords puzzle

You may think Mondays are hard, but for the Atlantic Crosswords, that would be Sundays. The crosswords grow in number of clues and the level of difficulty. Those Mondays will really give you a false sense of confidence, I'm speaking from experience.

The Guardian Crossword puzzles

You can easily find something you like among the Guardian Crossword puzzles. You can play the Quick, Cryptic, Speedy, Everyman, and Genius crossword puzzles and never get bored, considering how much variety they offer.
