Merry Christmas Pack Answers
Every clue and answer from the Merry Christmas bonus pack, in game order.
Merry Christmas — Complete Answer List
This page covers the Merry Christmas bonus pack from Daily Themed Crossword — 262 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 262 clues this pack is smaller than the average pack, which runs to about 290. The longest answer is NICHOLAS at 8 letters. Note the clue flags as you read: 15 clues here end in "Abbr.", so those answers are shortened forms, and 18 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.

Other Themed Packs
3 Tips for the Merry Christmas Pack
Everything here shares one subject
A themed pack narrows the field far more than a daily board does: all 262 clues in Merry Christmas 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.
Answer length is the tiebreaker
Answers here run from 3 to 8 letters, the longest being NICHOLAS. Themed clues often have two plausible solutions, so match the length to the slot before you commit.
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.
Verified Answers, Not Guesses
How we verify the Merry Christmas pack
All 262 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.

How to Solve a Daily Themed Crossword
How the daily and mini grids are built, and the order that solves them.
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.
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.
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.
