About the dated answer key
The clue-and-answer pairings are from Forbes’ answer guide, published November 29, 2024. It is a secondary answer article, not an official New York Times puzzle archive.
Playing the puzzle
Forbes reported that the Mini was free to play on the New York Times website or NYT Games app, while accessing earlier puzzles in the archive required an NYT Games subscription. That access detail is a report from the 2024 answer guide, not a verification of current NYT terms.
