Forbes‘NYT Mini’ Hints For Wednesday, June 25: Extra Clues And Answers For Today’s GameBy Kris Holt

Wondering what is the fictional maker of the Little Giant Do-It-Yourself Rocket-Sled Kit ? Not sure what plant mezcal is distilled from? Don’t worry, because I’m here to help you with extra hints and the answers for today’s NYT Mini crossword.

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.

Here are extra hints and the official NYT Mini Crossword clues and answers for Wednesday, June 25:

It took me 0:43 to complete today’s NYT Mini.

I was very happy to get ACME quite quickly here. VROOM and ENTRY were no problem, but I drew a blank on AGAVE and POWER at first. I figured out all the Down clues other than MOVER, though I misspelled EMERY as “emory.” It cost me a couple of seconds to fix the mistake. Still, I’m happy with that time overall.

I’ll see you tomorrow for more NYT Mini fun!
