This game challenges you to sort a list of 16 words into four hidden categories by figuring out how the words are related. Each puzzle has a unique twist, and the difficulty can vary. A new challenge drops every night at midnight. Just like with Wordle, you can track your progress, build a winning streak, and even compare scores with friends to see who\u2019s the ultimate word whiz.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How to Play NYT Connections<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In Connections, you\u2019ll start with a grid of 16 random words, and your job is to figure out how they group into four sets of four words. These sets are based on how the words connect to each other. The connections can be about anything: famous video game titles, book sequels, different shades of red, popular chain restaurants\u2014you name it.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s tricky because some words might seem like they belong in more than one group, but there\u2019s only one correct solution. To make things easier, you can shuffle and rearrange the words to help visualize the possible connections better.<\/p>\n<p>The groups are also color-coded to give you a clue about their difficulty. The yellow group is usually the easiest to figure out, followed by green, blue, and the trickiest, purple.<\/p>\n<p>To play, just pick four words you think belong together and hit \u2018Submit.\u2019 If you\u2019re correct, the four words will disappear, and the theme connecting them will be revealed. But watch out\u2014if you guess wrong, it\u2019ll count as a mistake, and you\u2019re only allowed four mistakes before the game ends!<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>Stuck?
