Others were sneaky and made people think twice. Like Wordle, Connections changes every day. If the puzzle scared you a bit, don’t worry.
Below are the clear hints and the full answers to help you finish the game.
What Is Connections & How Do You Play?
Connections is a simple word game. You get 16 words. Your job is to put them into four groups of four. Each group has a theme that links its words. But some words are meant to trick you. You only get four wrong tries. On the fourth wrong try, the game ends, and you see the answers.
The game uses colours to show how hard each group is. The colours are yellow, green, blue, and purple. Yellow is the easiest. Purple is the hardest. You can also shuffle the board if you want. Many people like to share their results online after they finish.
