Hint for Strands #131
Think of names you might see on the back of a car. The theme is “Auto suggestion.”
Theme-word answers
The six regular theme words are:
- EXPLORER
- OUTBACK
- SOUL
- ACCORD
- CHARGER
- EQUINOX
Spangram
The spangram is CARMODELS. It names the category connecting the six answers.
How Strands hints and the spangram work
Strands is a themed word-search game. Trace connected letters in any direction without reusing or crossing letters. Theme words are highlighted when found. The spangram identifies the theme and stretches between opposite sides of the board. Finding three words that are not theme answers earns a hint that reveals one theme word.
This answer set is reported by Try Hard Guides’ July 11, 2024 answer guide; TechRadar’s July 12, 2024 coverage also lists the same answers and spangram. The sources agree on the solution, but neither establishes board coordinates, so no path layout is included here.
