How Strands hints work

Strands is a themed word-search game. A secondary description of its gameplay says that players connect letters in any direction without reusing or crossing them; finding three non-theme words of at least four letters earns a hint that highlights a theme word. The spangram describes the theme and touches the board’s left and right sides. These are general gameplay details reported by Try Hard Guides, not a current official rules statement.
