Connections Unlimited is a daily word game crafted by Wyna Liu, associate puzzle editor at The New York Times. Launched in beta in June 2023, it’s now the second-most-played NYT game after Wordle. Each day, players face a 4x4 grid of 16 words and must sort them into four groups of four, each united by a hidden theme. With only four mistakes allowed, it’s a delicate balance of strategy and intuition.
Here are the complete solutions for today’s Connections puzzle, grouped by category and color-coded by difficulty (yellow is easiest, purple is trickiest):
