New York Times Games
It’s no secret that the New York Times Games has many famous fans, from professional basketball players creating their own gameplay tournaments to actors creating their own Crosswords.
Now, for the first time, New York Times Games is joining forces with some of its most dedicated celebrity puzzlers, including actor Chris Perfetti, actress Lola Tung and her puzzle pal, Jazz singer Laufey, and reality television friends Luann de Lesepps and Sonja Morgan, to launch a multi-game leaderboard.
Providing an even easier way to connect over the delight of puzzling, the brand-new leaderboard allows solvers to showcase daily triumphs and fuel friendly rivalries across Wordle, Connections, Spelling Bee, and The Mini Crossword.
From May 8 to May 11, solvers are invited to add Chris, Lola, Laufey, Luann, and Sonja to their leaderboard to share in the joy of solving and see how they stack up. And don’t be surprised if you see more celebrities joining leaderboards soon. Solvers can share favorite celebrities who they would love to see in their leaderboards with gamesmarketing@nytimes.com.
Celebrity puzzlers will be added to leaderboards on a first come, first serve basis. Keep an eye out for each celebrity puzzler’s Instagram on May 8th for direct links.
Solvers can add friends, family, and fellow puzzlers to their leaderboard by downloading the New York Times Games app from the App Store on both iOS and Android devices.
