How To Play Strands
Strands is the newest game in the New York Times’ stable of puzzle games. It’s a fun twist on classic word search games. Every day we’re given a new theme and then tasked with uncovering all the words on the grid that fit that theme, including a spangram that spans two sides of the board. One of these words is the spangram which crosses from one side of the grid to another and reveals even more about the day’s theme.

Today’s Strands Breakdown
This was a fun NYT Strands even if it wasn’t the most challenging. I do love all things Robin Hood, including the outrageously silly Mel Brooks film, Robin Hood: Men In Tights. I nabbed FOREST and FRIAR first and then found ROBIN HOOD, today’s spangram, which made OUTLAW rather apparent. Everything else lined up nicely after that.
