Connections is a puzzle game from the New York Times that challenges you to categorize a pool of 16 words into four secret groups. Each group is connected by a common theme, and your task is to figure out what those themes are. The puzzle resets every night at midnight, and you can track your winning streak and compare your scores with friends.

How to Play:

  1. View the Grid: You’ll see a grid with 16 words.
  2. Identify Connections: Organize the words into four sets of four based on how they relate to each other.
  3. Submit Guesses: Select four words and hit “Submit”. If correct, the words will be removed and the theme revealed. If incorrect, it counts as a mistake.
  4. Limit of Mistakes: You can make up to four mistakes before the game ends.
  5. Color-Coding: Each group has a color-coded difficulty level – yellow (easiest), green, blue, and purple (hardest).
