  "account": "On September 24, the New York Times introduced the latest word game, Strands, following its successful Wordle, Connections, and Spelling Bee games. The game, now a staple in the NYT Games stable, can be played on the website for desktop or mobile users. Strands offers a new puzzle every day, meaning some players are tackling today's game while others are still playing yesterday's.\n\nFor today's Strands puzzle (game #935), the theme revolves around \"Just outside the door.\" Players can unlock in-game hints by inputting any of the following clue words: HOBO, WINK, WINGS, TRACK, FAME, or TRAP.\n\nThe spangram, a single-word clue that stretches across the board, consists of 8 letters. It touches two sides of the board: the left side in the 5th row and the right side in the same row.\n\nThe answers to today's Strands puzzle are SANDBOX, TREEHOUSE, SWINGS, POOL, TRAMPOLINE, FORT, and SPANGRAM: BACKYARD. The game's rating is rated as easy, with a perfect score achieved by the player. The spangram \"BACKYARD\" evoked nostalgic memories of the player's childhood, reflecting the fading memories of a cluttered backyard that no longer exists due to the growing children.",
