The app listing, the version table and the download step are laid out by this site’s stylesheet. With stylesheets switched off, or blocked before they arrive, none of that layout exists, so the page is not shown.

Allow CSS for this site — including in any content blocker or privacy extension that may be stopping it — then reload the page.

What NYT Crossplay is and who plays it

NYT Crossplay is a two-player word board game from NYT Games. Each player places letter tiles on a shared board in turn and scores points for the words they build.

It suits people who want a head-to-head word game with friends or family, or who want to practice alone against the computer. The listing says the game has no in-app ads.

Playing word games with friends

You can start games with friends and family, or be matched with random opponents. The listing says you can run several word games at the same time against different players.
