How It Works

How Cryptic Clues Work

Every Minute Cryptic clue contains two parts: a straight definition and a wordplay component. Here's how to decode them.

Step 01

Find the Definition

The definition is usually at the start or end of the clue. It's a synonym for the answer.

Step 02

Spot the Indicator

Look for indicator words that signal anagrams, hidden words, reversals, or other wordplay.

Step 03

Identify the Fodder

The fodder is the raw material — the letters or words used to construct your answer.

Step 04

Build the Answer

Apply the wordplay technique to the fodder to construct the answer that matches the definition.

Tips & Strategies

Tips & Strategies

Master cryptic crosswords with these time-tested techniques.

Read the Whole Clue Twice

Cryptic clues are designed to mislead. Your first impression is usually the surface reading — read again to spot the definition and wordplay structure.

Check the Letter Count

The number in parentheses tells you the answer length. Use this to eliminate impossible answers and confirm your solution.

Look for Indicator Words

Words like 'mixed', 'broken', 'around', 'back', 'hidden in' signal specific wordplay types. Learn common indicators to crack clues faster.

Definition is at the Edges

In almost every cryptic clue, the definition is either the first or last word(s). This is the most reliable rule in cryptic crosswords.
