No major challenges here. Yellow and green groups were relatively straightforward, with green slightly easier than yellow. Purple was a bit trickier, but manageable. I made a minor mistake in solving purple, but eventually got it right.

The theme of CAMPAIGN SWAG with BUTTON, HAT, SHIRT, and STICKER is prominent globally right now, and it was an interesting connection to uncover.

What is NYT Connections?

NYT Connections is a word game created by the New York Times where players must find groups of four items that share a common factor. The groups vary in difficulty, with green being the easiest and purple the most challenging.

Players can make up to four mistakes and use the process of elimination to solve the puzzles. It’s a more complex game than Wordle, with potential tricks and wordplay to watch out for.

NYT Connections can be played for free on the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
