How this puzzle fits Connections
Connections presents sixteen terms to sort into four groups of four. The categories can hinge on familiar meanings or less obvious, lateral associations. TechRadar describes the colors as difficulty tiers, with yellow easiest and purple hardest, and reports that players can make up to four mistakes. Its guide says the daily puzzle appears at midnight in each time zone and can be played on the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile; those are details reported by that guide, not a guarantee about current availability.
