Gameplay-wise, every puzzle in Connections has four secret different themes that link to four of the 16 words available. Select four that could be connected and, if youโre right, it will group them into their common association, or connection, if you will. Each category has its own color, with yellow being the easiest, then green, blue, and the hardest, purple. The categories can range from movie quotes or utensils to trees with an extra letter attached or Super Bowl performers. You only have four strikes and, if you run out, you lose your streak. Luckily, if you want to maintain your streak but canโt figure out the answers, weโve got you covered.
