Are you ready to exercise your wordplay skills with today's edition of Connections NYT from The New York Times? This addictive word game, much like Wordle, challenges players to find common threads between sets of words. If you're up for the challenge, read on for some hints and strategies to tackle today's puzzle.
Connections has quickly gained popularity as the latest daily word game from The New York Times. Developed by associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu, this game has found its way into the hearts of word enthusiasts across social media platforms. Available on both web browsers and mobile devices, Connections tasks players with grouping four words that share a commonality.
Each puzzle presents 16 words divided into four categories. These categories can range from book titles to country names, with each set requiring players to identify the common factor. While some words may seem to fit together, only one combination is correct. Guess correctly, and those words are eliminated; guess wrong, and it's counted as a mistake—players have up to four mistakes before the game ends.
Players have the option to rearrange and shuffle the board for better visibility. Additionally, categories are color-coded based on difficulty, with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Similar to Wordle, you can share your results with friends on social media.
