Play Strands, our newest word-search game with a twist.
www.nytimes.com
The objective? Use every letter on the board to find today’s linked words plus their hidden theme. A new puzzle is added daily.

I started playing this about a week ago and have been having a great time.

It’s kind of like a word search that can go in any direction after every letter, but can’t overlap, and you don’t know the words. There’s also a special word (sometimes 2 words together) called “spangram” each day that will go from one side of the board to the other and spell out the theme of the other words.
