This week’s Strands puzzle in Forbes presents a challenge for players, with a focus on finding words that are all titles you would call someone. The game involves finding a group of words that have something in common, as well as a special word known as a spangram which links two opposite sides of the board. In addition to the theme words, players must discover the spangram and ensure that every letter is used once in one of the words. If players unlock three valid words of at least four letters that are not part of the theme, they can access a hint button to help them solve the puzzle.
The official hint for this week’s Strands puzzle is “Call Me?” which refers to titles that you would use to address someone. Additionally, a suggested hint from the writer is “Honorifics,” further emphasizing the theme of titles in this week’s puzzle. The spangram for this week is “TITLES,” with the answers including words such as REVEREND, QUEEN, SENATOR, PROFESSOR, DOCTOR, and ADMIRAL. The challenge of this puzzle led the writer to use outside resources to solve it, indicating the difficulty level for players.
The writer found this week’s Strands puzzle particularly challenging, requiring additional hints to uncover words like QUEEN, DOCTOR, SENATOR, PROFESSOR, and REVEREND.
