Is
it
just
me
or
has
Connections
got
a
lot
easier
lately?
I
don’t
feel
like
I’m
doing
anything
different,
but
after
multiple
failures
over
a
two-to-three-week
period
I’ve
now
beaten
eight
in
a
row.
And
today’s
might
be
the
simplest
of
them.
The
only
one
I
didn’t
solve
was
green
–
PALINDROMES
FEATURING
“E”.
I’m
surprised
this
was
the
green
group,
because
it’s
harder
than
either
blue
or
purple,
and
they
are
meant
to
be
in
difficulty
order.
I
guess
finding
CAR
MODELS
(purple)
might
be
tricky
if
you’re
not
a
driver,
but
they’re
all
generally
well
known.
And
as
for
blue…
is
there
anyone
on
the
planet
who
wouldn’t
spot
that
the
BEANS,
COW,
GIANT
and
JACK
go
together?
Not
that
I’m
complaining
–
it’s
nice
to
actually
feel
like
I’m
good
at
this
game!
How
did
you
do
today?

an

What
is
NYT
Connections?
NYT
Connections
is
one
of
several
increasingly
popular
word
games
made
by
the
New
York
Times.
It
challenges
you
to
find
groups
of
four
items
that
share
something
in
common,
and
each
group
has
a
different
difficulty
level:
green
is
easy,
yellow
a
little
harder,
blue
often
quite
tough
and
purple
usually
very
difficult.
On
the
plus
side,
you
don’t
technically
need
to
solve
the
final
one,
as
you’ll
be
able
to
answer
that
one
by
a
process
of
elimination.
What’s
more,
you
can
make
up
to
four
mistakes,
which
gives
you
a
little
bit
of
breathing
room.
It’s
a
little
more
involved
than
something
like
Wordle,
however,
and
there
are
plenty
of
opportunities
for
the
game
to
trip
you
up
with
tricks.
For
instance,
watch
out
for
homophones
and
other
word
games
that
could
disguise
the
answers.
It’s
playable
for
free
via
the
NYT
Games
site
on
desktop
or
mobile.
