How Connections works
Connections asks players to sort 16 words into four groups of four based on a shared link. TechRadar’s guide describes the puzzle as allowing up to four mistakes and says it can be played on the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile. The game number identifies this puzzle: it is #945, not a score or a statistic.
Rank #2
The groupings above are also reported by TechRadar and Parade; neither is the original NYT puzzle record.
