Perfect
Today’s
Connections
really
got
my
brain
working
–
which,
I
guess,
is
the
intention.
Green
–
KINDS
OF
PARTIES
–
was
not
a
difficult
one,
with
BIRTHDAY,
COCKTAIL,
DINNER
and
SURPRISE
standing
out,
but
I
found
yellow
and
blue
harder.
The
problem
was
largely
one
of
misdirection,
with
NOVA
and
SUPER
and
HYPER
all
sounding
like
they
could
go
together,
but
eventually
I
settled
on
the
PREFIX
MEANING
“VERY”
angle
and
solved
yellow.
That
left
blue
and
purple,
and
here
I
was
stuck.
Maybe
if
I
watched
US
TV
I’d
have
had
a
better
chance
with
PBS
SHOWS,
but
I’m
in
the
UK
and
so
I’m
not
really
aware
of
the
likes
of
MASTERPIECE
and
FRONTLINE.
My
attention
was
instead
focused
on
ANGERS
–
an
odd
word
for
Connections,
and
one
that
didn’t
appear
to
go
with
anything
else.
But
the
word
NICE
was
also
nagging
away
at
me,
and
I
knew
that
CHAMPAGNE
is
a
French
place
too,
so
put
them
together
with
REUNION
and
ANGERS
and
solved
purple.
How
did
you
do
today?

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.
