The Washington Post has added Keyword, a play on a typical crossword puzzle, the third in its suite of online games.  

Keyword offers six words as clues, each containing a missing letter, the object being to fill in the blank spaces to reveal the six-letter keyword. 

A new version of Keyword, accessible on desktop, mobile web and the Post app, will be offered seven days per week at midnight ET.  

In addition, the Post is launching a dedicated page for easy access to all games.

"Our readers have embraced the expanding portfolio of interactive games with a surge in user engagement,” says Jessica Gilbert, head of product at the Post.  “In the past year alone, our user play rate has grown by 70%."
