If you played the NYT Strands grid on Tuesday, April 21, this quick guide will help. It provides hints, notes and the complete answer list.

How Strands works

Strands is a New York Times word puzzle with a twist on the classic word search. Players find themed words on a grid, including a spangram that crosses board edges.

Theme and hint

The day’s theme was Risky Business. The hint suggested words meaning brave or determined. The clue also hinted at actions that might seem reckless or foolish.

Answers

  • Spangram: DAREDEVILS
  • ADVENTUROUS
  • GUTSY
  • COURAGEOUS
  • INTREPID
  • BOLD

Puzzle notes

This puzzle leaned toward longer and less common words. COURAGEOUS has many vowels in unexpected places. INTREPID is less familiar to casual solvers.

Shorter entries like BOLD and GUTSY were easier to spot. DEVILS appeared where two larger words met on the board.
