Are you ready to dive into today's mind-bending word puzzle? The latest craze from The New York Times, Connections NYT, is sure to keep you on your toes. If you're up for the challenge, buckle up because we're about to unravel the secrets behind today's set of words.
Connections has taken the world by storm, thanks to its unique twist on word games. Developed by the creative minds at The New York Times, this daily brain teaser is the brainchild of associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu. Available on both web browsers and mobile devices, Connections challenges players to identify the common thread linking four seemingly unrelated words.
Each day presents a fresh set of 16 words, divided into four distinct categories. Your task is to group together words that share a common trait. It could be anything from book titles to country names, but remember, there's only one correct answer per set. Make a correct guess, and those words disappear from the board. Guess wrong, and it counts as a strike—four strikes, and the game ends.
Feeling stuck? Don't fret! You can rearrange and shuffle the board to help spot connections more easily. Plus, each group is color-coded based on difficulty, with yellow being the easiest and purple being the toughest. And just like Wordle, you can share your triumphs (or defeats) with friends on social media.
Need a nudge in the right direction? Here are today's categories:
And now, the moment you've been waiting for—the answers to today's Connections puzzle:
