The solutions to right this moment’s Strands, recreation #490, are…
- STRENGTH
- SPEED
- FLIGHT
- INVISIBILITY
- HEALING
- SPANGRAM: SUPERPOWER
- My ranking: Straightforward
- My rating: Good
All these “I”s made INVISIBILITY very, erm, seen right this moment. Though, to be truthful, all of right this moment’s phrases had been hiding in plain sight and didn’t want a lot of a puzzling SUPERPOWER to disclose.
That mentioned, the very first phrase I noticed on the grid was “lady” proper beside “energy”, so I did briefly flirt with this being one thing to do with the Spice Ladies.
Asking somebody what superpower they’d like is a superb dialog starter that may reveal lots about an individual, particularly if it comes with the caveat that you simply don’t truly need to do good issues with it – like battle evil geniuses and their henchmen and henchwomen.
FLIGHT could be fascinating and STRENGTH could be good, and being invisible would imply a lifetime of free sports activities and live shows, however I like the thought of SPEED – though I’d want to seek out somebody with the HEALING superpower first, so they might kind my knees out.
How did you do right this moment? Let me know within the feedback under.
