News Word is a five-letter word puzzle, and each solution is a word taken from a CT Mirror story. A new News Word puzzle is available each day.

Note: We launched CT Mirror’s daily News Word puzzle as a six-month experiment in July 2023.  Since then it amassed a small, but loyal, following. We have decided, however, that our financial and time resources are better invested in other concepts and will be sunsetting the game at the end of the day on Monday, Jan. 15.

We will maintain our popular our weekly Connecticut News Quiz, which comes out every Friday afternoon.
