Guide
What is a crossword puzzle?
A crossword puzzle is a word game on a grid of white and black squares. Each crossword clue points to a word or phrase that fills an across or down slot. Solvers use the clue wording, answer length, and crossing letters to find the crossword answer.
Quick crosswords often use synonyms and general knowledge. Cryptic crossword clues hide wordplay inside the surface reading. CrossHint is built for looking up a crossword clue and seeing labeled crossword answers, not for inventing a fill when the record is thin.
How to use the crossword solver
Type all or part of a crossword clue in the crossword solver. Add the answer length if you know it. Add known letters when the grid already shows a few squares. CrossHint then lists matching crossword answers with a confidence label.
- Enter the crossword clue, even if you only remember part of it.
- Optional: set length and known letters, using ? for blanks.
- Open the clue page or an answer page to see why the match is listed.
You can also browse crossword clues, crossword answers, and answers by length when you would rather scan than search.

What is a crossword clue solver?
A crossword clue solver looks up possible crossword answers for a clue you type. On CrossHint you can add answer length or known letters, then open a crossword clue or crossword answer page. Labels show how sure the match is.
How do I find crossword answers by length?
Enter the clue in the crossword solver and set the length box, or browse answers by length. Known letters use the letters you have and ? for blanks, such as O??A?A.
What do Best match and Unverified suggestion mean?
Best match is the primary crossword answer for that clue. Possible answer is a weaker candidate. Unverified suggestion is a guess that is not treated as certain. CrossHint keeps those labels visible.
Does CrossHint invent crossword answers?
No. CrossHint does not invent definitions, fake publication appearances, or scrape unchecked puzzle pages. Thin, draft, and fixture records stay out of search until a record earns a public page.
Where can I browse crossword clues?
Open the crossword clues list for published clues, or start from a search on this homepage. Each clue page names one primary answer and lists other crossword answers with confidence labels.
