ForbesNYT ‘Strands’ Hints, Spangram, Answers For Monday, April 14By Kris Holt

Hey, folks! Today’s NYT Strands hints, spangram and answers for Tuesday, April 15 are coming right up.

How To Play Strands

The New York Times’ Strands puzzle is a play on the classic word search. It’s available on the NYT website and in the NYT Games app alongside the likes of Wordle and Connections (which we also cover in daily guides at Forbes Gaming).

There’s a new game of Strands to play every day. The game will present you with a six by eight grid of letters. The aim is to find a group of words that have something in common, and you’ll get a clue as to what that theme is. When you find a theme word, it will remain highlighted in blue.

You’ll also need to find a special word called a spangram. This tells you what the words have in common. The spangram links at least two sides of the board, but it may not start or end there. While the theme words will not be a proper name, the spangram can be a proper name. When you find the spangram, it will remain highlighted in yellow.

Every letter is used once in one of the theme words and spangram. You can connect letters vertically, horizontally and diagonally, and it’s possible to switch directions in the middle of a word. If you’re playing on a touchscreen, double tap the last letter to submit your guess.

If you find three valid words of at least four letters that are not part of the theme, you’ll unlock the Hint button. Clicking this will highlight the letters that make up one of the theme words.

Be warned: You’ll need to be on your toes. Sometimes you’ll need to fill the missing word(s) in a phrase. On other days, the game may revolve around synonyms or homophones. The difficulty will vary from day to day, and the puzzle creators will try to surprise you sometimes.

NYT 'Strands' Hints, Spangram Answers For Tuesday, April 15

My mind went immediately to beer based on the clue. Draft picks for a sports or fantasy league seemed too on the nose.

The spangram took me a little time to find, but I don’t mind too much if I don’t get that immediately. SOUR jumped out at me from the bottom left right away then I found PILSNER on the left followed by STOUT up top.

REGAL and BOCK were next, then NITRO in the bottom right (I had never heard of that in this context). The spangram finally became clear, leaving PORTER to wrap up everything.

I didn't use any hints, found the spangram as my seventh theme word and could really go for a pilsner right now.

See you tomorrow for more Strands fun!
