Connections is a fun puzzle game where you have to categorize a set of 16 words into four secret groups based on their relationships. Each puzzle is refreshed daily at midnight and can vary in difficulty. Like Wordle, you can track your streak and compare scores with friends.
How to Play NYT Connections
- Objective: Organize a grid of 16 words into four groups of four based on their connections.
- Word Groups: The groups can be anything from shades of a color to names of TV shows. There is only one correct way to group the words.
- Gameplay: You can shuffle and rearrange the grid to help spot potential connections.
- Color-Coding: The groups are color-coded for difficulty: yellow (easiest), green, blue, and purple (hardest).
- Submission: Pick four words and submit them. If correct, they’ll be removed from the grid, and the theme will be revealed. If not, it counts as a mistake. You have a total of four mistakes before the game ends.
