Strands

(3.5)

2024

Strands is an online word game created by The New York Times. Released into beta in March 2024, Strands is a part of the New York Times Games library. Strands takes the form of a word search, with new puzzles released once every day. The original pitch for the game was created by Juliette Seive, and puzzles are edited by Tracy Bennett.

Decent little brain puzzle game. Some days are fun, other days make you want to throw your phone across the room (similar to the other games from NY times). Not my favorite of the bunch.

Some of the themes click right away and other times I stare and swear they made a bunch of stuff up.

Oh look, I never rated this one. Just another in the morning NYT routine for me and many others here in the chats. A fun way to get the day going. This one and connections are my favorites.

It's a nice easy puzzle solver which gives hints so you can always solve it which is nice

I would give this 3.5 stars if I could. It's a fun daily game, I enjoy searching for the words and the theme. They are clever about using letters that form other words, and sometimes almost form words that relate to the clues. Does what it sets out to do well, but not enough depth to deserve 4 stars.

This puzzle game is one of the latest additions to the NYT puzzle app. It's...ok. It doesn't seem like there's enough there, it's more of a word search with just one clue. I play it everyday hoping that they will add more meat to it at some point.

I originally rated this 4 stars, but playing this more has lowered the rating for me. I still
enjoy the daily puzzle, but sometimes it's just lame. No other way to put it.

I enjoy this little puzzle word search. The game gives you a very generic theme and you have to find the words without knowing what they are. One of the words gives you the specific theme. It's never too difficult, but is just a fun daily puzzle
