NYT Strands today (game #153) – the answers
The answers to today’s Strands, game #153, are…
- BAROQUE
- MODERN
- ROMANTIC
- CLASSICAL
- MEDIEVAL
- SPANGRAM: ARTHISTORY
- My rating: Easy
- My score: Perfect
I solved this one in rather a roundabout way, getting the spangram first then finding the individual answers, but if not I might well have struggled. The theme clue of ‘A night at the museum’ didn’t suggest ARTHISTORY or the likes of ROMANTIC and BAROQUE to me; I was thinking dinosaurs and romans and mummies and so on…
Still, with ARTHISTORY in place it became obvious what kind of words I needed to find, and I ticked them all off with a minimum of fuss from there.
