How NYT Connections works
Connections sits alongside Wordle as one of the Times’ biggest gaming hits. Created with input from associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu, the game challenges you to sort 16 words into four groups of four. Each set shares a common thread- movies, software, places, phrases, and so on.
It sounds simple, but there is a catch: Some words look like they belong in more than one group. Only one answer is correct. Get a grouping right, and the words vanish from the board. Get it wrong and your chances of solving the puzzle decrease. Players are allowed four errors before the game ends.
The NYT Connections puzzle is color-coded by difficulty. Yellow tends to be the most obvious, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, you can share your results with friends once you are done.
