2022 in Review — Complete Answer List

This page covers the 2022 in Review bonus pack from Daily Themed Crossword291 clues with every answer listed. Packs sit outside the daily calendar: they stay in the app permanently and are built around a single subject rather than a single date, so you can work through one at your own pace instead of racing a midnight reset.

At 291 clues this pack is larger than the average pack, which runs to about 290. The longest answer is METAVERSE at 9 letters. Note the clue flags as you read: 13 clues here end in "Abbr.", so those answers are shortened forms, and 8 carry a "wds." marker, meaning the answer is several words run together without spaces.

Clues appear below in the order the game gives them, so you can scroll to roughly where you are stuck rather than hunting the whole list. The pack index holds all 202 sets, and if your puzzle is dated rather than themed it will be in the daily archive or the mini archive instead.

Pro tips

3 Tips for the 2022 in Review Pack

01

Everything here shares one subject

A themed pack narrows the field far more than a daily board does: all 291 clues in 2022 in Review pull from the same subject. Read the pack name as a hint before you read the clue — it rules out most of the answers a general crossword would allow.

02

Answer length is the tiebreaker

Answers here run from 3 to 9 letters, the longest being METAVERSE. Themed clues often have two plausible solutions, so match the length to the slot before you commit.

03

Packs never change

Unlike the dated boards, a pack is fixed — the same clues in the same order for every player, which is what makes a written answer list reliable. Browse the full pack index for the rest, or the dated archive if you are chasing today's board instead.

How we check

Verified Answers, Not Guesses

How we verify the 2022 in Review pack

All 291 clues in this pack are read from the pack data itself, with answers length-checked and clue text kept verbatim. Packs are fixed content, so this page is checked once against the game and then stays correct rather than drifting.

Reviewed by Nadia Okonkwo, Crossword and Clue Editor at Puzzle Solved. The full checking routine is in the methodology, and the standards every page is held to are in the editorial policy.

How to play

How to Solve a Daily Themed Crossword

How the daily and mini grids are built, and the order that solves them.

STEP 01

Read the theme before the clues

Daily Themed Crossword builds every puzzle around one idea, and the long entries almost always belong to it. Knowing the theme turns those from cold clues into a guessing game with a very short list.

STEP 02

Fill the short crossings first

Three and four letter answers use the most predictable vocabulary in the whole grid. Each one you place hands letters to the long clues for free, which is a better use of the first minute than staring at the hardest entry.

STEP 03

Abbreviations are signposted

A clue ending in "Abbr." or containing its own abbreviation is telling you the answer is short and clipped. The same goes for "Hyph." and "2 wds." — the clue format is half the answer.
