Today’s Atlantic Games, Solved: Complete Answer Key for December 6, 2025
Saturdays and Sundays go crossword-free at The Atlantic Games, but the weekend slate still packs a punch with free-to-play brain benders like Bracket City, Fluxis, and Stacks.
Weekend brain break: The Atlantic pulls its Crosswords off the board on Saturdays and Sundays, which is a nice breather, but the other modes still pack a punch. If you got stuck on today’s Bracket City, Fluxis, or Stacks while procrastinating between episodes, I’ve got you covered. Here’s everything you need for December 6, 2025.
Bracket City (Dec 6)
Today’s chain was friendlier than yesterday’s. If you want to check your path (or jump straight to the finish), here’s the full run with clues and answers spelled out:
[a potent scent] = Musk
[Latin principally spoken by children 🐖] = Pig
[number of Musketeers or Little Pigs] = three
[three-body ➡️ _ ⬅️atic] = problem
[if you are not part of the solution you might be part of the _] = problem
[" _ problemo" (correccion: _ hay problema)] = no
["!" (response to an incredulous "no !")] = Way
[animal associated with Bruce Wayne 🤵] = bat
[most popular battery size] = AA
[you might take a sick one 🤒 or have a field one 🤪] = day
[one stand (thing) or one-stand (fling)] = night
[a light one is actually a measure of distance 💫] = year
[recurring biblical time span, in days/nights/years] = forty
[Aries and Pisces, e.g.] = signs
[signs, as a deal 🖋️] = inks
[forty winks, maybe] = Nap
Fluxis (Dec 6)
The base word is "PRESSED". You’re building three new words that meet specific conditions, each one kick-started by a piece of the previous. Yes, the chaining is a little fussy, but here’s the clean path that satisfies everything:
Double letters condition: start with the D from "PRESSED" and make "DABBING".
No repeated letters condition: use the "BING" chunk from "DABBING" to launch "BINGERS".
8 letters condition: take the S from "BINGERS" to begin "SUPPRESS" (which is 8 letters).
Stacks (Dec 6)
Starter words on the board: ACQUIT, BONUS, CHICHI, COGENT, DOWSES. The goal is to drop them into the grid so new, cleaner words lock in. Do it in this order and you’ll land the solve:
- Move ACQUIT to the middle and drop it.
- Move BONUS to the middle right and drop it.
- Move DOWSES to the left and drop it.
- Move CHICHI to the right and drop it.
- Move COGENT to the left and drop it.
That sequence yields the final words: DAIQUIRI, COCONUT, OBSESS, WHICH, and CENT. Game over.
If you breezed through all that, congrats. If not, no shame in tag-teaming a puzzle before diving back into your queue.
