How to Play NYT Connections:
In Connections, you’re given a grid with 16 words. Your task is to group these words into four sets of four by figuring out how they are related. These sets could include things like video game titles, book series, shades of colors, or chain restaurant names.
Some words might fit multiple themes, but there is only one correct solution. You can shuffle and rearrange the words to better see possible connections.
The groups are color-coded based on difficulty: yellow is the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple.
Select four words and hit Submit. If you’re correct, those words will be removed from the grid, and the theme connecting them will be revealed. Guess wrong, and it counts as a mistake. You have four mistakes allowed before the game ends.
