Hints for Connections #742
These clues point to the four groups without listing the words in each one:
- Yellow: “Breaking!”
- Green: “We hold these truths to be self-evident.”
- Blue: Box-set staples.
- Purple: Not right.
Category answers
- Yellow: NEWS ANNOUNCEMENT
- Green: NOUNS FROM A FAMOUS LINE IN THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
- Blue: HBO SHOWS
- Purple: WHAT “LEFT” MIGHT MEAN
Complete answer sets
- Yellow — NEWS ANNOUNCEMENT: BULLETIN, FLASH, REPORT, WIRE
- Green — NOUNS FROM A FAMOUS LINE IN THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE: HAPPINESS, LIBERTY, LIFE, PURSUIT
- Blue — HBO SHOWS: ENTOURAGE, EUPHORIA, INSECURE, SUCCESSION
- Purple — WHAT “LEFT” MIGHT MEAN: DEPARTED, PORT, PROGRESSIVE, REMAINING
Why the purple group fits
The words connect to different meanings or associations of “left”: someone may have departed or be remaining; port is the nautical term for the left side of a vessel; and progressive is a political association with the left.
Confirming the archived puzzle
The date and game number identify this as Sunday, June 22, 2025, game #742. TechRadar and Parade both report that date and the four solution groups: TechRadar’s guide and Parade’s guide. Daily puzzles appear at midnight in each player’s time zone, so the date called “today” can vary by location; using the date and game number avoids that ambiguity. The listed solution is corroborated by these publisher guides rather than an official NYT answer archive.
