How to play Connections<\/strong><\/h3>\n

In Connections, you are presented with a grid of 16 words. Your goal is to organize these words into four groups of four based on their connections. These groups could include categories like video game franchises, book series sequels, shades of red, or chain restaurant names.<\/p>\n

There are often words that seem to fit multiple themes, but there\u2019s only one correct solution. You can shuffle and rearrange the words to better visualize the connections.<\/p>\n

Each group is color-coded: yellow is the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Pick four words and hit Submit.<\/li>\n
  2. If correct, the words will be removed from the grid and the theme revealed.<\/li>\n
  3. If incorrect, it counts as a mistake. You have four mistakes before the game ends.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
