Playing the puzzle
A January 30, 2025 report by Yahoo Entertainment said that the current-day Mini was available free on the New York Times website and NYT Games app, while older archive puzzles required an NYT Games subscription. That is a report of access terms on that date, not confirmation of current terms.
The answer key above is also reported by Forbes in its January 29, 2025 coverage of the January 30 puzzle. Both reports give the same Across and Down answers.
