Like many crossword puzzles (though not this one) (6)

I believe the answer is:

themed

(Other definitions for themed that I've seen before include "setting" , "with thread?" , "given a conceptual treatment" , "Given recurrent idea" , "Like special crossword" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
