NYT Strands today (game #161) - the answers (Image credit: New York Times) The answers to today's Strands, game #161, are DECK PATIO VERANDA BALCONY SUNROOM TERRACE SPANGRAM: BONUSSPACES My rating: Hard My score: 4 hints I really, really struggled with today's Strands. I struggled to get started, and needed a hint to find the first word. That was DECK, and I struggled then to see the relationship to the theme clue, 'Home stretch?', and so needed another hint. That gave me PATIO, at which point I realized what I needed to do. However, I then struggled to think of or find any other words. Eventually I needed hints for BALCONY and SUNROOM, and by that stage there were very few words that could still be formed, so I did manage to find the others. Even so, the spangram, BONUSSPACES, still took me an age to uncover. Not a good day. How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know.
