What is NYT Connections?
NYT Connections is an engaging word game created by the New York Times. It challenges players to find groups of four items that share common characteristics. Each group has varying difficulty levels, from easy (green) to very difficult (purple).
Players have the flexibility to make up to four mistakes and can deduce the final group’s answer through process of elimination. While more complex than games like Wordle, NYT Connections offers a range of tricky word puzzles like homophones and deceptive word games to keep players on their toes.
