Play group crossword clue
68 Across · WSJ Crossword, May 14, 2026 · 4 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Play group” is CAST. It appears as 68 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of May 14, 2026, a Thursday puzzle titled “Speed Bumps” by Catherine Cetta, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 14, column 1 of the 15×15 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with C and ends with T, and contains 1 vowel and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Thursday puzzles lean harder on misdirection, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
