Connections is a game from the New York Times that challenges you to find the association between words.
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 6th’s game was pretty easy.
The first word I went with was baseball.
Maybe there is a category with “Things that are round?”
Nopethe Blue group was actually “Hail Size Comparisons.”
I can only imagine how devastating grapefruit-sized hail would be.
Next, I looked at courtroom and dugout simultaneously.
What do they have in common?
With benches in mind, gym (as in a weight bench) and park fell neatly into place.
Purple was just “Places with Benches.”
Drive, propel, and push are all related to making things move.
Prompt, while less physical, has the same basic idea.
To get something into motion, or get something into action.
The Yellow group was “Move to Action.”
That left just draw, reverse, skip, and wild.
In isolation, it was obvious what they were.
The Green group was properly “Uno Cards.”
