How to play Connections

Connections is one of the most popular (and challenging) daily puzzle games published by the New York Times (owner of Wordle). The goal of Connections is to group the 16 words of the day into four groups, with each group of four words having a common theme.

For example, the words “Hook”, “Nana”, “Peter”, and “Wendy” are all Peter Pan characters. Let’s take another example: “Action”, “Ballpark”, “Go” and “Stick” are words that usually appear right before the word “Figure”.

Your task is to guess what themes connect different words – but be careful, because in most cases there are misleading connections that are only intended to confuse you! To win the game you must find all four connections without making 4 mistakes. On the fourth mistake, the game ends and the answer is revealed automatically.

Each of the four groups in the daily Connection puzzle is also assigned a different color to represent how basic or hard it is to find the Connection. These colors are: yellow (easiest), green (basic), blue (medium), and purple (hardest).

What’s today’s answer on Connections?

Here is the answer to today’s Connection puzzle, which will take place on Friday, October 10:

• Yellow: Significant (substantial, significant, sedate, sedate)
• Green: One in a septet (continent, mortal sin, sister, miracle)
• Blue: Tarot cards with “The” (devil, lovers, magician, star)
• Purple: ___ Eye (Evil, Magic, Nudity, Third)

I saw all these “devil” and “magical” words in today’s Connections and immediately thought of tarot cards, even though I didn’t know much about them. I even got to the devil, the lovers and the magician – I wish I was sure about the “star”.

I bet I’m not the only one who felt a little confused by the fact that “evil”, “miracle” and “mortal sin” are not in the same group. I like the idea of ​​a green theme since they all come in sevens, but it was definitely a tricky idea!

I’d say the only (relatively) basic theme in this Connections was yellow. No surprises!
