Green: REPLACEMENT
BACKUP, COVER, RELIEF, SUBSTITUTE.
Blue: PARK STAPLES
BENCH, PIGEON, STATUE, TREE.
Purple: BLACKJACK TERMS
BUST, HIT, SPLIT, STAND.
Why BENCH is a tempting trap
BENCH can suggest a reserve player or substitute, making it an easy word to place in REPLACEMENT. In this puzzle, it belongs with PIGEON, STATUE, and TREE in PARK STAPLES; RELIEF is the word that completes the replacement group. The blackjack set uses HIT and STAND, terms that may be less familiar to players who know the game as “twist” and “stick.”

Connections asks players to sort sixteen words into four groups of four based on a shared link. The colors indicate differing difficulty levels; TechRadar’s guide describes green as easiest and purple as usually hardest. Players can make up to four mistakes. These difficulty descriptions are the guide’s general framing, not an official rule statement.
