Today's Strands Breakdown
Although the spangram was cunningly crafted, this game proved significantly less perplexing than it appeared. The subtle hints paved the way for easy progress, and finding STUMBLEUpon was nearly instant. The next word, PANIC, emerged minutes later, as did PUTTSLICKER. With the word SNAFU appearing nearby, it wasn't long before I noticed the ISY and navigated backward to reveal WHOOPSIEDAISY. From there, finding BLABBERMOUTH and WHIMSICAL was a breeze.
