How to play Connections

  1. Look across all sixteen words and select four with a specific connection.
  2. Submit the group and use the feedback to reconsider any near match.
  3. Find all four groups before using the four allowed mistakes. Yellow through purple indicate increasing category difficulty.

Checking a group against the whole board

An overlap can be a trap

One word may fit more than one plausible theme. The intended solution partitions the entire board into four groups, so check how a choice affects what remains.

Why try Connections?

Choose it when associations and double meanings are more appealing than spelling. You already have every word; the task is deciding which relationship belongs to each group.
