- Today's Strands theme centers on math, specifically words that describe numbers, with the spangram "Square Numbers" arranged horizontally.
- The word list for September 25 includes "Four," "Nine," "Twenty five," "Square Numbers," "Thirty six," and "Eighty one," all related to square numbers.
- Strands differs from other NYT games like Wordle by providing only an opaque hint without a word list, making it a more time-consuming and brain-teasing puzzle.
