Strands

I've started doing Strands recently, any fans here?

@matt.

What is it?

Been doing it about 6 months. Try not to use any 'clues"..

@matt.

What is it?

It's a newish game from the NY Times, so a sibling of Wordle. It's based on a word search, but with a theme. Today's is kinda dull, sometimes they are very very American, sometimes they're quite fun, but I think I prefer it to Wordle.

Anyone trying Strands? Almost as frustrating as Wordle for me.

Today was horrendous, I only recognised one of the words as a member of the category although I figured most of them out as words - and it was a bad day for Connections relying on US-specific stuff, and the Mini wasn't easy either.

'orrible today
too many USA words...

 

[Northern_Brewer]

Not too bad for me, but I have used two of them in recent months. Was the odd one I wasn't aware of but at least it was a recognisable word.

Strands #270
“Thank goodness!”




not sure what these signs mean...?

The key is right below your result

I was going to say "I'm stuck on the 7th one on today's "Thank Goodness" themed Strands" but (of course) then got it. Another very US-themed one. But hey, it is the NY Times after all.
