Today’s Strands had me making all sorts of faces at my screen. Once I uncovered the first couple of words, the theme became quite apparent, which brought a smile to my face. A few of the answers were a bit twisted on the board, almost making me scowl in concentration, but overall, it wasn’t too difficult to mouth out the solutions. A very expressive and fun puzzle to solve!

NYT Strands Rules
NYT Strands is a word game that is played on a 6×8 letter grid containing seemingly random letters. Each letter must be used in some way so that when all the words have been found, the board is full, leaving no letter unused.
Each puzzle has a theme, but you don’t know what the theme is. A hint is provided at the start of the game. You must guess all the common theme-related words that have something in common, leading to the Spangram.
Spangram is a special challenge word or base of the theme. All the words, when solved, are denoted in blue except the Spangram, which is denoted in yellow when guessed correctly and touches two ends of the board, side to side or top to bottom. Spangram denotes what’s common between all the other words on the board.
Note: Players can find non-theme words to earn hints. Every 3 non-theme words will unlock a hint.
