Welcome to a challenging word game that will test your creativity and deductive skills! The New York Times’ Connections is a clever game where you must group answers into different categories. If you’re in need of some hints, read on. And once you’ve completed one round, why not try your hand at some other word games like Wordle, Strands, or Quordle?
Let’s dive into today’s Connections challenge:
Today’s words are:
– Domino
– Dryer
– Fiddler
– Ladybug
– Internet
– Horseshoe
– Spider
– Rent
– Hairspray
– Gas
– Dalmatian
– Comb
– Phone
– Hermit
– Rollers
– Die
Here are some group hints for today’s Connections:
– Yellow: You might find them in a hair salon
– Green: Payday expenses
– Blue: They’re dotty
– Purple: Sideways movers
And the answers for today’s groups are:
– Yellow: Used in hair care (Comb, Dryer, Hairspray, Rollers)
– Green: Monthly expenses (Gas, Internet, Phone, Rent)
– Blue: Things with spots (Dalmatian, Die, Domino, Ladybug)
– Purple: ___ Crab (Fiddler, Hermit, Horseshoe, Spider)
Today’s challenge had me almost achieving a rare feat – solving the Connections groups in reverse order of difficulty. While I stumbled a bit with the green and yellow groups, ultimately, I completed the game without any errors.
Each group presented its own unique challenge, requiring creative thinking and a bit of general knowledge. For instance, the ‘Things with spots’ group sparked visual imagery that helped me connect the dots between the words. And while ‘___ Crab’ in the purple group was a bit tricky, a process of elimination helped me figure it out.
Connections is a delightful brain-teaser that offers a bit of wiggle room for errors, making it an engaging and rewarding game for word enthusiasts. So, take a break from your routine and challenge yourself with NYT Connections today!
