For Monday, April 1, 2024, the Connections answers were BREAD, BACON, GREENS, CHEESE; PLANE, RAIN, TRAIN, BRAIN; ALIEN, SCREAM, VAMPIRE, SAW; and EWE, BEE, EYE, TEA. One date detail: contemporary answer coverage identifies April 1 as Puzzle #295, while an archive result associates #294 with March 31. April 1’s board was an April Fools’ Day variation that used emojis instead of the usual word tiles.

Why the answers may look different from the board
The April Fools’ version displayed emoji clues rather than the familiar typed word tiles. For example, a sheep represents EWE, a leafy green represents GREENS, and a Dracula figure represents VAMPIRE. The emoji board’s visual clues therefore do not necessarily resemble the complete answer list at first glance. Fortnite Insider’s April 1 answer coverage describes examples including a screaming face, sheep, leafy green, and Dracula.

Was April 1 Puzzle #294 or #295?
The supplied title’s puzzle number does not match the contemporary date-specific answer coverage: Parade and other April 1 coverage identify Monday, April 1, 2024 as Puzzle #295, while an archive search result places #294 on March 31. The answers above are for the April 1 board, not a claim that its number was #294. Connections is The New York Times’ daily category-matching game; the NYT Games page is its official destination.
