How Connections works
Connections asks players to sort 16 words into four groups of four, with a color assigned to each group. Yellow is the easiest group and purple the trickiest, according to the NYT Games Help Center. The Help Center says the game is available on NYT web and app channels; its archive reaches back to June 12, 2023 for All Access and Games subscribers. Access terms can change, so check the official NYT Connections page for current play and archive availability.
