NYT Connections: hints and answers for Tuesday, October 15
The Connections puzzle from The New York Times presents a fun and challenging way to categorize words! If you’re having a tough time with today’s puzzle, here’s a breakdown to help you out.
How to Play NYT Connections
In Connections, you’re given a grid of 16 words. Your goal is to organize these words into four groups of four based on how they relate to each other. These categories can be anything from book series and movie titles to types of fruit or shades of color.
You can shuffle the grid if you need a fresh perspective, and the groups are color-coded to indicate their difficulty. When you select four words and submit them, the game will let you know if you’re correct by removing those words from the grid. You have four mistakes available before the game ends.
