NYT Strands today (game #827) - the answers
The answers to today's Strands, game #827, are…
- CHIPS
- CARDS
- TILES
- BOARDS
- TOKENS
- DICE
- SPINNERS
- SPANGRAM: GAMENIGHT
- My rating: Hard
- My score: Perfect
After getting CHIPS I decided that today’s theme must have something to do with casinos and gambling, which was more or less on the right track.
Thanks to the shortness of many of the game words I was able to rattle through the search fairly quickly, only pausing for SPINNERS — which finally made me realize that the GAMENIGHT in question was actually about analog board games.
I love board games, but I lack the patience to complete most of them — the same character flaw is possibly also why I have never watched a complete game of cricket, start 100 times more books than I finish and check the length of a film before committing myself to visiting a theater. Frankly, it’s a miracle that I get to the end of game of Strands.
