Connections, in terms of gameplay, focuses on 16 different words and your job is 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 goes by its own color, with Yellow being the easiest to solve, then Green, Blue, and the hardest, Purple. The categories can range from animal features or winter clothing to songs from The Beatles or the last names of Saturday Night Live cast members. You only have four turns and, if you run out, you lose your streak and the categories are revealed.
