NYT has long been the paper of record for the United States. With the once great nation devolving into oligarchy and kleptocracy, with a populace under educated and misinformed so too has the Gray Lady evolved into our casual gaming app of record. We may no longer afford ourselves a budget to consume reputable (though never infallible) news and judging from our elections lack any capacity to interpret it, but we will always be able to spare a few minutes a day for amusement. And the New York Times Gaming App provides the most accessible, concise puzzle game experience. With a variety of daily puzzles like Wordle, Strands and Connections there is something for everyone, and because the games update daily you won’t get sucked into them indefinitely. Perfect to play with your spouse before bed or in the bathroom at the office. Thank you for letting me know you are happy for me or sorry that this happened, i understand you did not read the review. God bless and good night! Best Casual Games NYT has long been the paper of record for the United States.

I love these puzzles! Something for everyone, no matter your puzzle style. Never thought I would take on the NYT crossword, but the progressive challenge through the week makes improving your solving skills fun and less frustrating. A nice break from my day that doesn’t make me feel like I’m getting dumber. Highly recommend this app. Satisfying breaks in my day I love these puzzles!

I cannot function without my crosswords, Wordle, and Spelling Bee. If I can’t find a nine letter word that starts with Te and has an h in it, who even am I? How was I alive before I knew the power of the word eke? I only eat doughnuts now if I can find the word “anal” in the Spelling bee and that makes my life fulfilling beyond my wildest dreams. When they finally use my lucky word in the Wordle all my problems will melt away. 10 STARS! Addicted I cannot function without my crosswords, Wordle, and Spelling Bee.
