One of the hardest aspects of Strands is racking your brain for words that might fit the theme, even when you've already figured out what it is. But that's not necessary today, because the answers are right in front of you. Or at least they are if you're playing on a laptop or desktop. I suspect most people use their phone, where the keys will be less obvious. But even so, the keyboard is somewhat familiar to most people, so I doubt anyone would find it too complicated.
