How Connections works

Connections asks players to sort 16 words into four groups of four that share a common feature. You select four words and submit a guess; Try Hard Guides says players can make up to four mistakes. A new puzzle arrives at midnight local time, so the date shown for the daily puzzle can vary with time zone.
