Strands is a daily themed word search played on a six-by-eight letter grid. Connect letters in adjacent directions, including diagonals, to trace words; paths can bend. Theme answers share a connection named by the spangram, which stretches between two opposite sides of the board. The game’s hint system can help reveal a theme word when you find three non-theme words of at least four letters.
