Connections is a daily word game created by Wyna Liu, which has quickly become a favorite on social media. The game challenges players to find four words that share a common theme out of 16 presented words. These words are divided into four categories, which can range from anything like book titles, software names, to geographical locations. Players can make up to four mistakes before the game ends, and they can rearrange the board to spot connections more easily. Each category is color-coded for difficulty: yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, players can share their results on social media.
