NYT Strands Answer: Tired of playing Wordle on repeat? The New York Times has introduced Strands, a fresh word puzzle designed to challenge your vocabulary. Strands takes a different approach by tasking you with uncovering six to eight words hidden in a scrambled grid, all tied together by a common theme. While NYT's intuitive design makes it easy to jump into, don’t underestimate the mental workout this game offers.
NYT Strands: Where To Access
Edited by Tracy Bennett, the same curator behind Wordle, a new game of Strands can be accessed every day on the Games section of the NYT website.
NYT Strands: How To Play
You start with a 6x8 grid of 54 letters. What you need to do is select a chain of letters you think makes a word.
Now, these words aren’t random, each of them is based on a daily theme. This theme will be shown in a box dubbed Today’s Theme on the left-hand side of the screen.
Based on that theme, you need to identify six to eight words every day.
Now, there is a fun element called Spangram. This is a hidden theme that only reveals itself when you find all six words.
Why Spangram, you ask? Well, the word spans the entirety of the grid. Add ‘span’ to ‘anagram’, and et voilà! You get Spangram.
Here’s a handy video from YouTuber Every Day Doug to help you out:
