Stu's Clues

Stu's Clues is a daily cryptic crossword puzzle from Mylonas Crosswords where your mission is to crack a single devious clue and find the hidden answer.

Each day brings one cryptic clue, a riddle wrapped in wordplay that leads to a single solution. These aren't your standard crossword definitions. Cryptic clues use anagrams, hidden words, reversals, and double meanings to disguise the answer in plain sight.

• You get one cryptic clue per day.
• The number in parentheses tells you how many letters are in the answer.
• Type your solution and submit.
• Get it right and you can view an explanation of how the clue worked.
• Miss it? You can still see yesterday's solution with a full breakdown of the wordplay.
• Members can track streaks, earn points, and access the full archive.

Why we like it:

• ✅Perfect gateway into cryptic crosswords without the commitment of a full grid.
• ✅The daily explanation teaches you the logic behind the madness.
• ✅One clue means you can squeeze it into any coffee break.

Hint: Look for indicator words like "smashed" or "change" that signal an anagram, or "back" and "returned" that suggest a reversal. The clue contains both a definition and instructions for building the answer.
