NYT Strands today: Clues, answers, Spangram for June 01, 2025
The New York Times published its inaugural crossword puzzle on February 15, 1942, in the Sunday Magazine. Created by Charles Erlenkotter and edited by Margaret Farrar, it was the first major newspaper to feature a crossword puzzle. Over the years, the NYT has introduced several beloved games, including the Mini Crossword in 2014, followed by Spelling Bee, Letter Boxed, and Tiles. In 2022, the NYT launched the wildly popular Wordle, followed by additional games like Connections and Strands. NYT Strands is the latest addition to its puzzle offerings. This engaging daily game presents players with new themes each day, challenging them to uncover all the words on the grid. One of the game's highlights is the special Spangram, which stretches across two sides of the board. With its innovative approach to word puzzles, Strands quickly became a fan favorite, adding to the diverse and exciting puzzle lineup of the New York Times.

Today's Strands' answers: LAWYER BAIL ALIBI MOTION COURTROOM OBJECTION What are NYT Strands and how to play the game? Strands is a puzzle game that blends elements of Connections, Spelling Bee, and classic crossword puzzles. Players are given 48 letters arranged on a 6 x 8-inch grid, along with a daily theme. The goal is to solve the Spangram and uncover all the theme-related words. To play, connect letters on the grid to form words by dragging your mouse or fingers (on a touchscreen) in horizontal, vertical, or diagonal directions. Start by identifying the central theme word or Spangram, which will help you understand the puzzle's theme. In addition to the Spangram, you must also find other words related to the theme hidden in the grid. Once you've uncovered them all, the puzzle is complete. Tips for solving NYT Strands puzzle Identify the theme words: Fill in the grid with the theme words. Once found, they will be highlighted in blue and won't overlap with each other. Find the Spangram: Identify the Spangram, a key part of the puzzle that connects two opposite sides of the grid. It encapsulates the theme and may consist of two words. The Spangram will be highlighted in yellow once you've located it. Take advantage of hints: Pay attention to off-topic words for clues. For every three non-theme words you uncover, letters will be highlighted to give you a hint toward finding a theme word, without directly revealing it.

Today's NYT Strands Hints, Answers and Help for May 27, #450
Looking for the most recent Strands answer? Click here for our daily Strands hints, as well as our daily answers and hints for The New York Times Mini Crossword, Wordle, Connections and Connections: Sports Edition puzzles. Today's NYT Strands puzzle plays off the popular books that suggest various horrendous futures, many of which have been made into TV shows and movies. If you need hints and answers, read on. I go into depth about the rules for Strands in this story. If you're looking for today's Wordle, Connections and Mini Crossword answers, you can visit CNET's NYT puzzle hints page. Read more: NYT Connections Turns 1: These Are the 5 Toughest Puzzles So Far Today's Strands theme is: A strange new world If that doesn't help you, here's a clue: Hope this future never comes. Your goal is to find hidden words that fit the puzzle's theme. If you're stuck, find any words you can. Every time you find three words of four letters or more, Strands will reveal one of the theme words. These are the words I used to get those hints, but any words of four or more letters that you find will work: MALE, DALE, GALE, YALE, VINO, MOVE, HOVEL, HOVE, HIVE, TEAR, REAL, REAM, GATE, PATE, MATE, MEAT, TEAM, TEAL LATE These are the answers that tie into the theme. The goal of the puzzle is to find them all, including the spangram, a theme word that reaches from one side of the puzzle to the other. When you've got all of them (I originally thought there were always eight but learned that the number can vary), every letter on the board will be used. Here are the nonspangram answers: ANIMAL, FARM, HANDMAIDS, TALE, HUNGER, GAMES Today's Strands spangram is DYSTOPIANNOVEL. To find it, start with the D that's the first letter on the left on the top row, and wind down and around.
