ForbesToday’s ‘Connections’ Hints And Answers For Tuesday, June 18

It’s Wednesday, and you know what that means: it’s time for more Scottish heartache at Euro 2024… I mean, it’s time for another round of Connections!

Today’s NYT 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.

Back-to-back perfect games means I now have 29 wins in a row. Phew.

I almost had the greens, but I couldn’t figure out the fourth word. Rather than just taking a wild guess, I turned my attention to the yellows after spotting the link between AYE and YEA. I then realized that SEE went with the other greens.

The purple words were up next thanks to PALM and TAROT making that group pretty clear. That left the blues, and I did figure out that connection before submitting it.

That’s all there is to it for today’s Connections clues and answers. Be sure to check my blog for hints and the solution for Thursday’s game if you need them.

P.S. It’s been stuck in my head since I heard it on an ad the other day and it’s an all-time classic. That’s reason enough to include this song today.
