How to play Redacted

Redacted is a free daily word game from Off The Press. Each morning we take five real headlines from the last day's news and black out one word or short name in each. The rest of the headline is your clue.

Guess letters to uncover it. Every letter that appears is revealed everywhere in the answer; every letter that doesn't costs a miss. Make six misses and the story is spiked. Think you know it? Type the whole answer — a wrong solve costs one miss.

Each headline is worth up to 6 points: 6 minus your misses if you uncover it, 0 if it's spiked. Your score for the day is the total of all five, out of 30.

After each headline, the full version links to the story. A new set publishes every morning at 6am ET, and every past day stays playable in the archive. Want more? Try the daily Mini Crossword, or browse all Off The Press games.
