Looking for help with today’s NYT Strands puzzle? Having a bit of a tough time uncovering the words? Well, look no further. Today’s Strands is a particularly challenging one, but we have some extra hints and the answers below.

Looking for Thursday’s Strands? Check out our guide right here.


How To Play Strands

Strands is the newest game in the New York Times’ stable of puzzle games. It’s a fun twist on classic word search games. Every day we’re given a new theme and then tasked with uncovering all the words on the grid that fit that theme, including a spangram that spans two sides of the board. One of these words is the spangram which crosses from one side of the grid to another and reveals even more about the day’s theme.

Spoilers ahead.

Today’s Strands Hints

Read on for today’s theme and some hints to help you uncover today’s words.

Today’s Theme: Weaselly Wascals

MORE FOR YOU

Hint: Other animals similar to a weasel or a stote. This particular family of carnivores is rather diverse, and makes me think of The Wind in the Willows or Redwall.

The first two letters of each word:

  • PO
  • MA
  • OT
  • WO
  • BA
  • FE
  • MU

Remember, spoilers ahead!

What Are Today’s Strands Answers?

Today’s spangram is: MUSTELIDS

Here’s the full list of words:

  • POLECAT
  • MARTEN
  • OTTER
  • WOLVERINE
  • BADGER
  • FERRET

Here’s the completed Strands grid:

Today’s Strands Breakdown

It’s funny how we perceive different members of the MUSTELID family. FERRETs, in fiction at least, are often bad guys along with weasels and MARTENs and POLECATs, whereas a BADGER or an OTTER are usually considered good guys. A fun, but very tricky, Strands today!
