Connections NYT is the latest sensation from The New York Times, captivating puzzle enthusiasts with its unique challenge of identifying "common threads between words." As with Wordle, each day brings a fresh set of words and a new puzzle, providing a progressively challenging experience. If you're here for today's hints and answers, read on for some guidance.
Connections is a daily word game developed by associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu and featured in the New York Times Games section. The game is accessible on web browsers and mobile devices, inviting players to group 16 words into four categories based on their commonality. Each puzzle requires players to identify four categories from a set of 16 words, with only one correct grouping for each category. Incorrect guesses are penalized, and players have up to four mistakes before the game ends.
Players can rearrange and shuffle the words to aid in finding connections. The categories are color-coded for difficulty, ranging from yellow (easiest) to purple (hardest). Results can be shared on social media, much like other popular word games.
