Strands NYT

Strands NYT is a new daily word game by the New York Times Games. It's a twist on the classic word search puzzles but with a single thematic clue.

Here's how it works:

• You get a grid of 48 letters arranged in a 6x8 format.
• There's a single clue provided that hints at a certain theme.
• Your challenge is to find all the words hidden in the grid that are related to that theme.
• The game also includes a special category called the "pangram" which uses all the letters in the grid and relates to the daily theme.

Strands is currently in beta testing but it's already gained popularity for its simple yet engaging concept. You can play it on the New York Times Games website or through their mobile app.
