Description

At times, players of word puzzles may be aware that a solution is there, but they are unable to perceive it. Strands Hint can give the player pointers that make them want to give the puzzle another go instead of giving up. Instead of just taking the challenge away, a good tip will show the gamer how to think more productively. Players whose word-solving skills are still developing will find hints especially valuable because of this. When a problem has a particularly cunning word or theme, they can be appreciated by more experienced players as well.
