It's always interesting to see the order in which the NYT places the groups in Connections. Today, for instance, purple – the most difficult – is 'Activities that involve folding', which I solved first out of all the groups. Blue is supposedly easier, but that was the acronym HVAC, a term I was entirely unaware of and could only solve by default. I guess one person's difficult answer is another's easy one…

What is NYT Connections?
NYT Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four items that share something in common, and each group has a different difficulty level: green is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite tough and purple usually very difficult.
On the plus side, you don't technically need to solve the final one, as you'll be able to answer that one by a process of elimination. What's more, you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing room.
It's a little more involved than something like Wordle, however, and there are plenty of opportunities for the game to trip you up with tricks. For instance, watch out for homophones and other word games that could disguise the answers.
It's playable for free via the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
