The fact that I solved this Strands puzzle in only a couple of minutes, despite not really knowing much about the subject (and that’s an understatement), proves just how easy it is. Several of the answers were ***** out nicely along the edges of the board, and stood out quickly based purely on letter combinations: WEDGE, CHUNKY and BLOCK were all simple to solve in that manner.

That said, I had no idea what ******* those words. Uncovering CONE confused me even more. It was only when I spotted KITTEN and then CUBAN that the lightbulb went off in my head, and the others followed soon afterwards.
