What is NYT Connections?

NYT Connections is a word game from the New York Times, challenging players to identify groups of four items sharing a common theme. Each group varies in difficulty: green is easy, yellow is moderate, blue is challenging, and purple is very difficult.

Players are allowed up to four mistakes, with the final group answer deducible through process of elimination. The game is more complex compared to Wordle, with potential traps such as homophones and word disguises.
