🧐 What is NYT Strands?

Strands is the newest word game from the New York Times, following hits like Wordle and Connections. It’s finally out of beta, which means it’s here to stay! You can play it on the NYT Games site on both desktop and mobile.

The goal? Find hidden words related to the daily theme by connecting letters in a word search-style grid. And the spangram? That’s the big word that ties the whole puzzle together!


🏆 Strands Strategy Tips

Want to get better at Strands? Try these:

Look for obvious words first – They’ll help unlock hints in the game!
Find the spangram early – It usually reveals the theme and makes spotting other words easier.
Don’t forget diagonal moves – Words can go up, down, left, right, AND diagonally!
Think about the theme – Sometimes the answers are less obvious than you’d think!


Strands is a fun and challenging new way to test your word skills, and today’s puzzle was a slapshot to the brain! 🏒 If you cracked it, well done! If not, no sweat—tomorrow’s another chance to show off your word wizardry.
