Connections NYT, the latest word game from The New York Times, has taken the gaming world by storm. Similar to Wordle, this daily challenge resets daily, presenting increasingly complex puzzles where players must identify commonalities among groups of words.
Introduced by associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu, Connections requires players to group four words that share a common theme from a set of 16 words. These themes can range from book titles to country names, challenging players to discern the correct grouping amid tempting but incorrect options. Players have up to four chances to guess correctly before the game concludes.
Each puzzle is color-coded by difficulty, from yellow (easiest) to purple (most challenging), aiding players in navigating the increasing complexity. Players can rearrange the board to aid in identifying connections and can share their results on social media, adding a competitive edge to the game.
