Persona 5 Royal has 38 crossword puzzles available across 39 dates. The book is on the leftmost table in Café Leblanc and can be used at night. Solving a puzzle costs no time and awards one Knowledge point. Use the answer order below rather than relying on the calendar: an unsolved puzzle remains available and can stack with later puzzles.
Where to find the crossword book
Check the leftmost table in Café Leblanc during the evening. Interact with the crossword book to start the currently available puzzle. Only the blue-highlighted squares are required for the answer.
How Persona 5 Royal crosswords work
- No time cost: completing a crossword does not advance the evening or consume an activity slot.
- Knowledge reward: every completed puzzle grants one Knowledge point, helping with exam performance and some Confidant requirements.
- Fixed sequence: answers appear in the order below, not as a permanently date-locked daily puzzle.
- Missed puzzles persist: if you skip one, it repeats on the next available night and can remain alongside other unsolved puzzles.
- Royal-specific answers: Persona 5 Royal uses a different answer set from the original Persona 5, so an original-game guide may not match.
