CALLING ALL NYT GAMES LOVERS!!!!

A new game called "Strands" has been made by NYT.

PLAY HERE:

https://www.nytimes.com/games/strands

HOW TO PLAY:


1.

Find theme words to fill the board.

Theme words stay highlighted in blue when found.

Drag or tap letters to create words. If tapping, double tap the last letter to submit.

Theme words fill the board entirely. No theme words overlap.




1.

Find the “spangram.”

The spangram describes the puzzle’s theme and touches two opposite sides of the board. It may be two words.

The spangram highlights in yellow when found.

An example spangram with corresponding theme words: PEAR, FRUIT,
BANANA, APPLE etc.




1.

Need a hint?

Find non-theme words to get hints.

For every 3 non-theme words you find, you earn a hint.
