FAQ
Can I play today’s Connections board here?
Yes. Tap four words that you think belong together and hit Check. Correct groups lock in with their colour, and you get four mistakes, same as the real game.
What do the colours mean?
Yellow is the easiest group, green is medium, blue is tricky and purple is the hardest. The order in the hints section follows that ranking.
Why do some words fit two groups?
That is the puzzle design. The editor deliberately places words that belong to two categories, so a group is only safe when all four words defend themselves equally well.
