The Connections puzzle game is gaining popularity and challenging word lovers.
It’s similar to Wordle but with a twist. Instead of guessing a word, your task is to find connections between sets of words.
Below are instructions on how to play and today’s clues and answers.
Connect – How to Play?
In this brain teaser, you’ll categorize 16 words based on their connections into four groups. For instance, tying the words “baroque,” ‘complex,” ‘elaborate,” & “involved” under “complicated.”
Each category is color-coded to indicate its difficulty level. Green, blue, and yellow are the least challenging.
Themes vary from body parts to movie franchises. Guess wrong four times, and it’s game over!
There’s a shuffle button to rejig the word order. A handy lifesaver when you’re stuck.
Explaining the difficulty levels, Wyna Liu, the puzzle editor, shared insights on making Connections more challenging with diverse and tricky categories.
