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.
Spoilers ahead.

Today’s Strands Breakdown
THIS LITTLE PIGGY WENT to MARKET, this little piggy STAYED HOME, this little piggy had ROAST BEEF, this little piggy had NONE. And this little piggy went WEE WEE WEE! all the way home. Once I realized what we were dealing with, I got this one really quickly, but I admit that it took me a bit to get my first words, but after I did I saw PIGGY and worked my way back to the spangram before knocking out the rest.
