‘NYT Mini' Clues And Answers For Wednesday, April 30
NYT
If you're looking for the answers to the Tuesday, April 29 NYT Mini, those are here:
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):
ACROSS
1) Picture holder - FRAME6) New spin on an old song - REMIX7) Cream of the crop - ELITE8) Hobbes in "Calvin and Hobbes," for one - TIGER9) Profit = revenue – ___ - TIGER
DOWN
1) Agonize (over) - FRET2) Item in Indiana Jones's satchel, perhaps - RELIC3) Compadre - AMIGO4) Itty-bitty biters - MITE5) Wield, as influence - EXERT

Well, I don't know what to tell you, but that might have just been the easiest Mini I've ever done. 32 seconds start to finish. Just nothing hard in here at all for me at least. I got four of the five across words essentially immediately which just left Elite, but that was made clear soon enough. I certainly did not need my econ degree for profit = revenue - cost, which I do actually have. Hopefully tomorrow will bring a harder puzzle.
