The gameplay of Connections is simple: you are given 16 different words and asked to sort them into four secret categories. Choose four words or phrases that could be related and, if correct, it will group them into their common association, or connection, if you will. Each category has its own color, with Yellow being the easiest to solve, then Green, Blue, and the hardest, Purple. The categories can range from prank items or Spider-Man characters to 2010s comedy films or names that are also jobs. You only get four chances to get it right and, if you run out, you lose your streak and the categories are revealed.
