About Classic Crossword (News 24/7)

The games page of NEWS 24/7, the Greek news website, includes a classic crossword every day, the same for every reader. It comes in three sizes, so it fits however much time you have: a quick 5 by 5 for a coffee break, a 12 by 12, and a full 15 by 15 for a longer solve. The puzzles are credited to Alexandros Kontis.

You solve it in the browser in the usual way, filling the blanks across and down from the clues, with crossing letters helping you through the harder ones. The clues and answers are in Greek.

The same games page runs WordroW, a daily Greek five-letter word game, and the crossword is free to play.

It suits Greek speakers and learners who enjoy crosswords at whatever length they have time for.
