====== Strands ====== A new NYT game, in beta in 2024, that reminds me a ton of [[Cell Tower]] but has more [[Spelltower]]-like word selection rules, and does a nicer job with theming puzzles, including a special "spangram" word each day. I found this quite difficult to solve, although I bet the puzzles aren't terrible to author. A very clever iteration on some existing ideas. {{tag>videogame played "played in 2024" "played on PC"}}
