The New York Times has introduced a new word game, and it’s quickly becoming a favorite. Strands is the latest addition to the NYT’s lineup, offering a fresh challenge for puzzle enthusiasts. With its engaging format and daily themes, it’s no surprise that players are getting hooked.
Strands offers a fun challenge with a fresh puzzle every day. The game has a daily theme, and players must find hidden words related to it. There’s also a special word called the spangram, which runs across the board and describes the theme. Each puzzle resets every 24 hours, keeping players coming back for more.
How to Play StrandsPlaying Strands is simple but engaging. Here’s how it works:
Find words that match the puzzle’s theme.
Words you discover will stay highlighted in blue.
Drag or tap letters to form words. Double-tap the last letter to submit.
The words should fill the entire board without overlapping.
The spangram is the key to solving the puzzle. It stretches from one side of the board to the other and captures the main idea of the theme. Once found, it appears in yellow.
Need a Hint?
If you’re stuck, you can get hints by finding extra words that are not part of the theme. Every three non-theme words give you one hint. This hint reveals letters from a theme word, helping you move forward.
