NYT Strands today: hints, spangram and answers for Monday, October 28

Strands is a fresh twist on the classic word search from the New York Times. This game has you searching for “theme words” hidden in a grid of letters. Words are made by dragging or tapping letters, and double-tapping the last letter will confirm your word. Each letter in the grid is part of a theme word, and once a letter is used, it becomes unselectable. The puzzle also has a special word called the “spangram” that spans from one side of the board to the opposite side, hinting at the puzzle’s theme.

 

Today’s Theme: Fall fun

Hint: Activities, treats, and places that come to mind for autumn.

Spangram: ORCHARDS
