Full answers for November 27, 2025
Spoilers ahead: The categories and all 16 answers are listed below.
| Color | Category | Words |
|---|---|---|
| Yellow | Inundation | AVALANCHE, OUTPOURING, TIDAL WAVE, TORRENT |
| Green | Main folders in a computer | DESKTOP, DOCUMENTS, DOWNLOADS, MUSIC |
| Blue | Woodworking tools | DRILLS, FILES, ROUTERS, SAWS |
| Purple | Rhymes for New York Times games | CONFECTIONS, GRANDS, HURDLE, SWELLING SEA |
Why the purple group works
The purple category is a sound-based trick, not a literal shared meaning: CONFECTIONS rhymes with Connections, GRANDS with Strands, HURDLE with Wordle, and SWELLING SEA with Spelling Bee. The other groups are more direct: an avalanche, tidal wave, and torrent can describe overwhelming forces, while an outpouring can be a figurative flood; the remaining words name computer folders and woodworking tools.
Where to play
Connections is available through NYT Games. The answer key and date above are reported by TechRadar, with the same puzzle date and number also identified by Forbes and the word list by Solve Word Games.
