There’s something magical about a Sunday crossword puzzle solved with friends or family. We’re also introducing social features that let you solve the puzzle with another person-regardless of whether that person is on the other side of your apartment or the other side of the world. And it’s also why, to complement our minis, we’re now expanding to weekends. That’s part of why, when we relaunched puzzles at The Atlantic two years ago, we decided to start with a mini weekday puzzle-one that got bigger and more difficult each day. Others like a quick-and-dirty puzzle you can solve while waiting for the coffee to brew. Some people like an all-consuming and wickedly challenging monster grid. There are many kinds of cruciverbalists, of course. I think this joy is something all solvers have in common. Doing the crossword on the subway to school gave me one task a day that I knew had a solution. I got into solving crosswords in high school-a phase of life that is, as everyone can recall, not at all complicated or awkward. But that’s why I love crossword puzzles: They always can be. One of my least favorite things about life is that many big problems can’t be neatly solved. Editor’s Note: Our crossword puzzle gets a little bit more challenging each weekday.
