Still on Saturday's puzzle
If you landed here a day behind, the write-up for game #923, Saturday, September 12, is linked at the top of the page.
What Strands actually is
It is the newest word game in the NYT stable, sitting alongside Wordle, Spelling Bee and Connections. Fun, but it bites often enough that hints exist.
