It sounds easy, but it isn’tConnections categories can be almost anything, and they’re usually quite specific.
If you need a hand getting the answers, we’ve got you covered.
What Is Connections?
Connections is a game from the New York Times.
The objective is simple: sort 16 words into groups of 4.
Each group of words will be connected by some common idea or theme.
That common element could be anything.
Sometimes they’re references to economics, other times they reference fairy tales.
There is no telling what sort of association there will be between words.
Once you’re confident you understand the connection, select 4 words, then hit “Submit.”
You have only four attempts in total, so don’t be too guess-happy.
June 28th wasn’t too bad.
The first word I looked at was cue.
It is pretty unambiguous, and means “the signal to start.”
They were in the Purple group, “Underwear in the Singular.”
A satchel is a bang out of bag, so I started with that for my next group.
Clutch, messenger, satchel, and tote belonged to the Yellow group, “Types of Bags.”
That left freedom, latitude, license, and slack.
The terms seem vaguely related to the ideas of margin for error, or freedom of movement.
Green was “Wiggle Room"close enough.
I count that as a win still.
