About this archived puzzle
This answer guide concerns the historical March 14, 2026 board, not a current-day puzzle. The four sets agree across answer guides from Parade, TechRadar, and Try Hard Guides. Those are secondary guides rather than the official NYT puzzle archive.
#1 Best Overall
TechRadar describes the general game as allowing up to four mistakes and resetting daily at local midnight; those are general game details, not puzzle-specific mechanics. Try Hard Guides says earlier puzzles are available through an archive and notes subscription access, but current archive terms are not established here.
