Connections NYT, the latest word game from The New York Times, has been captivating players with its challenge to find common threads between words. Similar to Wordle, each day brings a new set of words, progressively more difficult, encouraging players to exercise their problem-solving skills. If you missed today's puzzle or prefer to tackle it yourself, read on for some helpful hints and strategies.
Connections, developed by associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu, has gained popularity across social media platforms. Accessible on both web browsers and mobile devices, the game presents players with 16 words divided into four categories. Players must identify the commonality among four words within each group, ranging from book titles to country names.
Correctly identifying the shared characteristic removes the words from the board, while incorrect guesses count as mistakes (up to four allowed). Players can shuffle the board for better visibility and share results with friends. Categories are color-coded for difficulty: yellow (easiest), green, blue, and purple.
