Today’s NYT ‘Strands’ Hints, Spangram and Answers for Saturday, July 26 originally appeared on Parade. Move over, Wordle, Connections and Mini Crossword—there's a new NYT word game in town! The New York Times's recent game, "Strands," is becoming more and more popular as another daily activity fans can find on the NYT website and app.

Strands requires the player to perform a twist on the classic word search. Words can be made from linked letters — up, down, left, right, or diagonal, but words can also change direction, resulting in quirky shapes and patterns.

New York Times Strands is a popular word puzzle game. The game offers a new theme daily. Today's theme is 'Step to it'. Hints are available to help players. The Spangram for July 25, 2025, is DanceClass.
