What is Connections?

The NYT‘s newest daily word game has taken social media by storm. The Times credits associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu for her role in developing this new word game and integrating it into the publication’s Games section. Connections can be enjoyed on both web browsers and mobile devices, requiring players to categorize four words that have something in common.

Each puzzle consists of 16 words, and the words are organized into four distinct categories. These groups may encompass various topics such as book titles, software, country names, and more. Despite multiple words potentially appearing to fit together, only one combination is correct.

If a player successfully identifies all four words in a set, those words are eliminated from the board. Guesses that are incorrect are counted as mistakes—players are allowed up to four mistakes before the game concludes.

Players also have the option to rearrange and shuffle the board to enhance their ability to spot connections. Furthermore, every group is color-coded, with yellow being the easiest option, followed by green, blue, and purple. Similar to Wordle, you can share your results with friends on social media.
