This
is
a
fairly
simple
Connections
puzzle
–
there
are
three
easy
ones,
meaning
that
the
final
(purple)
group
could
be
solved
by
default,
which
is
great
because
that
one
was
super-hard.
Blue
almost
seemed
too
easy
–
KOBE
couldn’t
really
refer
to
anything
other
than
the
basketball
star
or
the
Japanese
city,
and
with
CURRY,
BIRD
and
MAGIC
also
on
the
board,
it
was
clear
that
it
was
the
former
rather
than
the
latter.
Or
at
least
that
was
the
case
for
me.
If
you
know
nothing
at
all
about
the
NBA,
you
may
have
struggled
with
that
one
too.
As
for
purple…
well,
the
ENDING
WITH
GREEK
LETTERS
aspect
was
a
clever
one,
but
verging
on
too
difficult,
I’d
suggest.
I’m
glad
I
didn’t
need
to
work
out
that
one!
How
did
you
do
today?

me
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.
