Connections: Sports Edition
is a new version of the popular New York Times word game that tests the knowledge of sports fans. Like the original Connections, the game involves finding common threads between words. The game resets daily after midnight, with each new set of words becoming progressively more challenging. Here are some hints and tips to help you conquer the game.
What is Connections Sports Edition?
The latest daily word game from NYT is in partnership with The Athletic, the New York Times’ sports coverage property. Players must group four words that share something in common, with each puzzle containing 16 words split into four categories. Only one correct answer exists despite multiple words seeming to fit together. Players get up to four mistakes before the game ends, with the option to rearrange and shuffle the board to aid in spotting connections. Categories are color-coded for difficulty, ranging from yellow (easiest) to purple.
