Connections: Sports Edition
is a new version of the popular New York Times word game that aims to challenge sports fans. Like the original Connections, the game is all about finding common threads between words. Just like Wordle, Connections resets daily and each set of words gets more difficult, so we’ve got hints and tips to help you out.
What is Connections Sports Edition?
The latest daily word game from the NYT is in collaboration with The Athletic, bringing sports coverage to the mix. It’s playable on web browsers and mobile devices, requiring players to group four words with a common link. Each puzzle contains 16 words split into four categories, such as book titles, software, or country names. Only one grouping is correct, so choose wisely to avoid mistakes.
