ForbesToday’s NYT Mini Crossword Clues And Answers For Saturday, February 1By Paul Tassi

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.

The NYT Mini is a fun daily distraction that usually takes no time at all. I try to beat the standard weekday grid in less than a minute. But sometimes I can’t quite figure out one or two clues and need to reveal the answer.

To help you avoid doing that, here are the NYT Mini Crossword answers (spoilers lie ahead, of course):

NYT Mini Crossword Clues And Answers

ACROSS

1) Punxsutawney ___, Groundhog Day character – PHIL
5) Bird with “great blue” and “great white” varieties – HERON
7) Something rehabilitated by a P.R. firm – IMAGE
8) Material for party balloons and hospital gloves – LATEX
9) Home made of sticks, say – NEST

DOWN

1) ___ Connors, Bill Murray’s character in “Groundhog Day” – PHIL
2) Muscled guy – HEMAN
3) So, so angry – IRATE
4) Pricey sections of theaters – LOGES
6) “Ready for another customer!” – NEXT

Interesting puzzle today with a few hard clues, I thought. I really do not know what a LOGES is as I was thinking movie theater, not theater theater, and that is certainly not something in a normal one. HE MAN was a tricky one as I was looking for like GYMBRO or something, but I get it. The double Phils for Groundhogs Day, movie and holiday, was fute.
