Welcome to the eighth edition of the Sunday crossword puzzle from West Side Rag, featuring all-local clues related to the Upper West Side
Before you dive in, here are a few tips for solving:
- This puzzle is designed to be phone-friendly, but you’ll admittedly have more screen to work with if you play on a computer. The navigation bar above the puzzle also offers the option to Print it out if you’re more of a paper and pencil person.
- If you get stuck, the online version has an Assist button that will let you Reveal or Check a letter, word, or the entire grid. You can also Ask a friend by sending them an invite code and the link to the puzzle.
- All of the clues fit an Upper West Side theme, but crossword fans will notice this means a slightly sprawling grid and fewer intersections between words. We’ll continue working to craft the perfect puzzle that feels local to the neighborhood while offering the right amount of playability.
