For The New York Times’ Connections, you get 16 different words, and your goal is to sort them into four secret categories. Pick 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 The Office characters or winter clothes to rooms in a mansion or foreign countries that start with a vowel. You only get four turns to get it right and, if you run out, you lose your streak and the categories are revealed.
For today’s Connections, the words, unlike yesterday, aren’t too deceiving, but it’s always good to know what you’re dealing with. No matter the difficulty, keep in mind that many of the words have multiple meanings, so pay attention to them as you see any matches and try not to look for the obvious. The words in today’s Connections are as follows: Ice, Wheel, Grease, Lightning, Fire, Eel, Axe, Sun, Clay, Scrap, Volcano, Glaze, Drop, Banana Peel, Kiln, and Cut.
