This
might
be
the
easiest
Connections
puzzle
in
weeks
–
to
the
extent
that
I
solved
the
blue
and
purple
groups
first,
in
about
two
minutes
flat.
I
got
blue
first,
with
the
word
SCRATCHY
immediately
standing
out
due
to
my
love
of
The
Simpsons
(classic
era,
obviously;
we’re
talking
seasons
3-9,
no
more).
As
soon
as
I
spotted
that
SCRATCH
and
ROCKY
were
also
there
that
connection
became
clear,
and
similarly
AMUSEMENT
and
NATIONAL
instantly
led
me
to
the
usually
difficult
purple
group,
___PARK.
Yellow
and
green
were
slightly
harder,
in
my
experience,
but
only
slightly;
this
was
not
a
Connections
game
to
fret
over.
How
did
you
do
today?

me
an
email

let
me
know.

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.
