How to play NYT Strands

  • Find theme words: drag through letters in any direction, then double-tap the last letter to submit. Correct words turn blue and lock.
  • Use every letter once: letters do not overlap across theme words.
  • Spot the spangram: a theme-defining entry that spans two opposite edges and appears highlighted in yellow.
  • Earn hints: three valid non-theme words of four or more letters reveal letters from a hidden theme word.

Strategies to solve Strands faster

  1. Start with the spangram: scan edges for high-value sequences that could connect opposite sides. Once found, it narrows the search space to a tight semantic field.
  2. Brainstorm the domain: from the clue, list obvious candidates and path them visually on the grid.
  3. Bank hints early: collect three easy non-theme words to reveal letters when you stall.
  4. Eliminate overlaps: after locking a word, mentally remove those letters from future routes to avoid dead ends.
  5. Change directions: keep candidates but reroute with one or two bends if the straight path fails.
