There's a game called Minute Cryptic and it's really fun. It's based on a thing called Cryptic Crosswords, which are like crosswords but the clues are more cryptic (obvi). There are rules to how they work that are pretty complicated, but basically:
Minute Cryptic is just a NYT-style daily game where they make one Cryptic crossword clue per day, and they have a tutorial that's more in depth. I've been playing it for a while, and now I've also made some clues of my own.
