Premier Crossword

A bigger, Sunday-size grid with themed clues and proper wordplay. Free to play, no signup.

Play Fullscreen Free to play — works on phone, tablet and desktop.

Premier Crossword is the step up from the daily 13×13: a larger grid, a theme running through the long answers, and clues that lean on wordplay rather than straight definitions. Expect to spend closer to half an hour than ten minutes. The controls are identical to the rest of the site — tap a square to select it, tap again to switch between Across and Down — and hints are there if a corner refuses to fall.

FAQ

Is Premier Crossword free?

Yes. The full puzzle is free with no account and no download.

How big is the grid?

Larger than the daily 13×13 — a Sunday-size board, which is why it takes longer and usually carries a theme.

Is it harder than the daily crossword?

Yes. The clues use more wordplay and fewer direct definitions. If you are new to crosswords, start with Easy Crossword and work up.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes, though a tablet or desktop is more comfortable for a grid this size. The board scales to your screen either way.
