NYT Crossplay – Quick Guide

What is Crossplay?

NYT Crossplay is a two-player word game, similar to Scrabble but with some differences in board design, tile distribution, and point values. Players take turns building words on a shared board to score points.

How to Play

Each player starts with 7 letters, and tiles are replenished from a finite "tile bag" as they are played. Points are awarded based on the rarity of letters and their placement on the board.
Players can pass to skip a turn, resign a game (which counts as a loss), or, when playing against a computer, cancel at any time. The game ends once the tile bag is empty and both players have taken a final turn. Leftover tiles in your rack do not count against your score.

Where to Play

Crossplay is available exclusively through the Crossplay app on iOS and Android devices. Currently, it is only available in New Zealand. While you can play against a computer without signing in, creating or logging into a New York Times account allows you to:

• Play across multiple devices
• Track progress and stats
• Challenge friends or other players
• Matchmaking pairs you with opponents of similar skill who are online and opted into matchmaking. You can also play directly with friends by sending an invite link or adding them through your email contacts.

Game Mechanics

Tiles and Points: Crossplay features a unique tile distribution and point system. Some letters, like H, U, B, G, J, K, L, V, and W, have different values compared to Scrabble, while blanks, I, N, and S differ in quantity.

Building Words: Similar to Scrabble and Words With Friends, words must connect to existing tiles on the board, creating new opportunities for points.

Advanced Strategy: Effective play requires managing your rack, using high-value letters, creating multiple words at once, and taking advantage of board bonuses.

Computer Games: Matches against the computer do not affect stats and are not saved across devices.
