How Strands works
Strands is a themed word search played on a six-by-eight grid. Connect adjacent letters to form words; theme answers can bend in any direction. The spangram captures the theme and stretches between opposite edges of the board. Finding three valid words that are not theme answers earns an in-game hint that reveals letters in a theme answer.
