How NYT Connections works
Connections gives you 16 words and asks you to sort them into four groups of four that share a theme. Each group is marked with a color: yellow is the easiest and purple the trickiest. The words are deliberately chosen so that some can seem to fit more than one category, but each puzzle has one solution. See the NYT Games Help Center for the official rules.

Where to play and how the archive works
NYT says the daily puzzle is released at midnight in your timezone and is free to play across its listed platforms: the NYT Games app, nytimes.com/games/connections, nytimes.com/theathletic, and the News app. The Help Center says the archive goes back to June 12, 2023, and is available to All Access and Games subscribers. Archive games can affect some statistics but do not count toward streaks, and a completed archive puzzle cannot be replayed. Access details can change.
