In case you missed Saturday’s NYT Mini, you can find the answers here:
Wondering a paperless party announcement is? Not sure what it means to wipe out and face-plant? Don’t worry, because I’m here to help you with the answers for today’s NYT Mini crossword.
The NYT Mini is a quick and dirty version of the newspaper’s larger and long-running crossword. Most days, there are between three and five clues in each direction on a five by five grid, but the puzzles are sometimes larger, especially on Saturdays.
Unlike its larger sibling, the NYT Mini crossword is free to play on the New York Times website or NYT Games app. However, you’ll need an NYT Games subscription to access previous puzzles in the archives.
To help you avoid getting stuck and having to reveal missing letters, here are the NYT Mini Crossword answers for Sunday, September 1 (spoilers lie ahead, of course):

It took me 0:37 to complete today’s NYT Mini.
That’s more like it. After a slow game yesterday, a speedy solve is just what I needed. It was a slightly tricky puzzle too. I thought EVITE (a term very few people seem to actually use in real life?) was EMAIL, while BEAUT and EAT IT took a few moments to figure out after I found some of the letters in each. All the same, I’m pleased with that result.
