NYT Connections Got You Stumped? Daily Hints & Answers Here!

Struggling with today's NYT Connections puzzle? You're not alone! This addictive word game from the New York Times has taken the world by storm, challenging players to find the hidden connections between seemingly disparate words. If you're finding yourself stuck, don't worry, we're here to help you out.

What is NYT Connections?

Connections, created with the help of associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu, is a daily word game where you need to group four words that share a common theme or connection. The game presents you with 16 words, and your task is to identify four categories, each containing four related words. These categories can range from book titles and software to country names and more abstract concepts. It’s available on both web browsers and mobile devices.

How to Play & Win

The key to success in Connections is careful observation and lateral thinking. Even if multiple words seem to fit together, there's only one correct solution for each category. When you get all four words in a set correct, they are removed from the board. Be careful though, you only get four mistakes before the game ends!

Feeling overwhelmed? Don't forget you can shuffle the board to get a fresh perspective. The game also color-codes the categories by difficulty: yellow (easiest), green, blue, and purple (hardest).
