What is Connections?

Connections is a daily word puzzle about spotting common threads. Sixteen words appear on a grid; the goal is to sort them into four groups of four that share a theme. Groups are color-coded by rising difficulty: Yellow (easiest), Green, Blue, Purple (hardest). Up to three mistakes are allowed; the fourth ends the round. One official puzzle is available per day.

Rules at a Glance

  • Sort 16 words into 4 themed groups.
  • Select four words at a time and submit.
  • Correct groups lock in; incorrect sets count as mistakes.
  • Three mistakes allowed; the fourth ends the game.
  • One puzzle per day in the official version.
