How to play NYT Strands
The New York Times Strands Puzzle is a classic word search game. It is available at NYT website and in NYT Game application along with the like Wordle and Connections (which we also cover in daily guides at Forbes Gaming).
There is a new game of his Strands to play every day. The game will present you with a six by eight letter grid. The goal is to find a group of words that have something in common and you’ll get an idea of what that topic is. When you find a topic word, it will remain highlighted in blue.

You will also need to find a special word called a spangram. This tells you what the words have in common. The spangram connects at least two sides of the board, but may not start or end there. When you find the spangram, it will remain highlighted in yellow.
Each letter is used once in the topic words and the spangram. You can connect letters vertically, horizontally and diagonally, and it is possible to switch directions in the middle of a word. If you’re playing on a touchscreen, double-tap the last letter to submit your guess.
If you find three valid words with at least four letters that are not part of the theme, you will unlock the Hint button. Clicking on this will highlight the letters that make up one of the topic words.
