If you’re perusing this content, you’re in search of help with Strands, the New York Times’ intricate word-search game.

Strands presents a challenge to players by reimagining the classic word search. Words may be crafted from adjoining letters in any orientation, including diagonal, and can switch directions, resulting in distinctive shapes and designs. Each letter within the grid contributes to an answer. There is always a theme linking every solution, which includes the “spangram,” a unique word or phrase that embodies the day’s theme and stretches across the entire grid either horizontally or vertically.

By providing a vague hint and omitting a word list, Strands delivers a mind-bending experience that requires more time to complete than other games such as Wordle and Connections.

If you find yourself at an impasse or lack 10 or more minutes to tackle today’s puzzle, we have all the NYT Strands hints necessary for you to advance at your own pace.
