The New Yorker's puzzles section gathers several regular games in one place. There are daily titles such as Laugh Lines, where you date the magazine's cartoons, Catalogues, a sorting game, and Shuffalo, a word-building puzzle. Alongside these sit the main crossword, a smaller Mini, an archive of cryptic crosswords and the Name Drop trivia quizzes. Each game has a dated archive of past editions. The section sits within a subscription magazine site that offers sign-in and its own app.
