Connections is one of the most popular word games from The New York Times that has captured the public’s attention. The game revolves around finding common threads between words, similar to Wordle. Each day, Connections resets with a new set of words that become increasingly challenging. To assist players in overcoming these challenges, we have provided hints and tips.
What is Connections?
The latest daily word game from The New York Times, Connections, has become a social media sensation. Associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu is credited with creating the game and introducing it to the Games section of the publication. Players can enjoy Connections on web browsers and mobile devices, where they must group four words that share a common characteristic.
Each puzzle consists of 16 words divided into four categories, such as book titles, software, or country names. While multiple words may seem to fit together, there is only one correct answer. Successfully grouping all four words removes them from the board, while incorrect guesses are counted as mistakes. Players have up to four mistakes before the game ends.
Players have the option to rearrange and shuffle the board to make identifying connections easier. Additionally, each word group is color-coded, with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Similar to Wordle, players can share their results on social media.
