Looking for Saturday’s Connections hints and answers? You can find them here:
Happy Sunday, gang! I hope you’re making the most of the weekend. As it turns out, I need more things for my place than I realized, so the Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales have been doing a number on my credit card. I’m sure there will be even more deals to consider tomorrow. Oh dear.
Anyway, today’s Connections hints and answers are coming right up.
How To Play Connections
In Connections, you’re presented with a grid of 16 words. Your task is to arrange them into four groups of four by figuring out the links between them. The groups could be things like horror movie franchises, a type of verb or rappers.
There’s only one solution for each puzzle, and you’ll need to be careful when it comes to words that might fit into more than one category. You can shuffle the words to perhaps help you see links between them.
Each group is color coded. The yellow group is usually the easiest to figure out, blue and green fall in the middle, and the purple group is typically the hardest one to deduce. The purple group often involves wordplay, so bear that in mind.
Select four words you think go together and press Submit. If you make a guess and you’re incorrect, you’ll lose a life. If you’re close to having a correct group, you might see a message telling you that you’re one word away from getting it right, but you’ll still need to figure out which one to swap.
If you make four mistakes, it’s game over. Let’s make sure that doesn’t happen with the help of some hints, and, if you’re really struggling, today’s Connections answers.

It’s been a few days since my last perfect game, so it was nice to have one of those again. My overall win streak is back up to two.
Not much drama at all here. I didn’t really see any red herrings (though I suppose CAPITAL could have fallen into the yellow group), so today’s game was pretty straightforward. I got the groups in order of difficulty, which doesn’t happen too often. I also deduced the purple connection before submitting the fourth and final group.
