Hints for Connections game #603
These clues move from oblique to more direct. Stop when you have enough to keep solving.
- Yellow: Roast.
- Green: A teeny portion.
- Blue: Citrus finish.
- Purple: Mess up.
For a more direct nudge, think “jibe reactions,” “titchy,” “lemon and lemon,” and “it’s all gone wrong.”
Spoiler warning: categories and answers
The complete board has 16 words: SNAP, SCREW, BURN, ZEST, LOUSE, WEDGE, ZING, MITE, SLICE, MUCK, BIT, OUCH, LITTLE, TWIST, FOUL, and TAD.
#1 Best Overall
Yellow — Comment after an insult
BURN, OUCH, SNAP, ZING
Green — Tiny amount, with “a”
BIT, LITTLE, MITE, TAD
Blue — Bit of citrus garnish
SLICE, TWIST, WEDGE, ZEST
Purple — Bungle, with “up”
FOUL, LOUSE, MUCK, SCREW
How the tricky overlaps resolve
Several words invite plausible groupings that do not match the intended categories. SCREW, TWIST, and WEDGE can look like a set, while MITE and LOUSE can suggest bugs. The groups instead rely on the phrases “a bit,” “a little,” “a mite,” and “a tad,” leaving the citrus terms and the verbs that pair with “up” to complete the board. TechRadar writer Johnny Dee described considering the SCREW/TWIST/WEDGE connection before spotting the tiny-amount group; that is one reported solving path, not a rule for how everyone encounters the puzzle.
