The latest sensation from The New York Times, Connections NYT, has taken the word game world by storm. Similar to Wordle in its daily reset and escalating challenge, Connections challenges players to identify the "common threads between words." Created by associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu, the game is accessible via both web browsers and mobile devices.
Connections tasks players with grouping four words that share a common link from a set of 16 words divided into four categories. Categories can range from book titles to country names, demanding precision in grouping. Each correct group removed from the board, while errors are counted against a limit of four per game.
Players can manipulate the board layout to aid their search for connections, with categories color-coded by difficulty from yellow to purple, akin to Wordle's approach.
For those ready to tackle today's challenge, here are the categories:
