BEWARE: Spoilers follow for todays Strands puzzle!
Were about to give away the answers to todays Strands puzzle.
What is the spangram in todays Strands?
Todays spangram is DIRTYWORDS.
What are the theme words in todays Strands?
The theme words today are: FILTHY, GRIMY, UNKEMPT, STAINED, MUDDY, POLLUTED.
Maybe it literally refers to sewers and infrastructure.
DOLLED and SODA are non-theme words, as I expected.
Ah, but theres GRIMY along the left edge.
OK, so were looking for words that mean dirty or gross.
FILTHY is in the upper left corner.
Theres the spangram, from bottom to top: DIRTYWORDS.
UNKEMPT is in the bottom left.
STAINED is in the upper right corner.
MUDDY is to the left of STAINED.
This last grouping of letters is giving me trouble.
It’s just enough letters to potentially be two different words, but I think it’s just one.
It takes me a minute or two, but finally I find POLLUTED.
Your job is to find the hidden words within the board that reflect the puzzles theme.
When you find the spangram, it will be highlighted in yellow.
Solving the spangram usually makes the rest of the puzzle much easier to complete.
There is only one correct solution.
