**New York, NY – May 4, 2025** – May the Fourth be with you, puzzle enthusiasts! CNET has released the solutions to today’s New York Times Strands puzzle (#427), themed “Star Wars: A New Hope.” The puzzle, a word-finding challenge, tasked players with uncovering hidden words within a grid, with the discovery of three words of four letters or more unlocking themed answers.

The main objective was to find all the themed words, including a spangram – a word spanning the entire puzzle. While the number of themed words can vary, today’s puzzle featured a spangram, “OPENINGCRAWL,” which players could locate starting from the “O” in the top left corner.

CNET provided hints and solutions for those struggling to complete the puzzle, including a key clue: “The beginning…” referring to the iconic Star Wars opening sequence.
