Hints for Connections #475
Try each clue before moving to the next. They point toward the four categories without naming the answer groups.
- Made up of several things.
- Forcefully cramming something into something else.
- You use these to play something named after a greedy business tactic.
- Each answer shares a second word associated with having power over something.
How to approach the board
Connections asks you to sort sixteen terms into four groups of four. A useful check before submitting is whether the same idea fits all four words—not just two or three. Some apparent connections may be red herrings, and a category can depend on wordplay or a shared phrase.
