NYT Strands Today (Game #766): The Answers
The answers to today’s Strands game number 766 are…
- BLANKET
- QUILT
- AFGHAN
- THROW
- SPREAD
- QUILT
- SPANGRAM: BED LINEN
- My rating: Easy
- My score: Perfect
“Go Undercover” must be about spies, I thought, so I looked up words related to covert operations like mole, agent, and mission. Then I found the word BLANKET and realized I was looking for the wrong type of blanket.
Next, the letter Q helped me find QUILT, although I admit I found the non-game word “quest” first.
Today’s spangram was obvious, but it still took me a while to go from “fabric” to “bedding” and finally BED LINEN, all of which has made me feel a little sleepy.
