The New York Times published its inaugural crossword puzzle on February 15, 1942, in the Sunday Magazine. Created by Charles Erlenkotter and edited by Margaret Farrar, it was the first major newspaper to feature a crossword puzzle. Over the years, the NYT has introduced several beloved games, including the Mini Crossword in 2014, followed by Spelling Bee, Letter Boxed, and Tiles. In 2022, the NYT launched the wildly popular Wordle, followed by additional games like Connections and Strands.
NYT Strands is the latest addition to its puzzle offerings. This engaging daily game presents players with new themes each day, challenging them to uncover all the words on the grid. One of the game’s highlights is the special Spangram, which stretches across two sides of the board. With its innovative approach to word puzzles, Strands quickly became a fan favorite, adding to the diverse and exciting puzzle lineup of the New York Times.
