After all, there are only so many times you can solve a connection that is effectively 'synonyms for another word' before it gets a little tired. But this well, it's great fun. Totally random, yes, but great fun. Whatever next nice colors for a bathroom? Emotions you feel when you see a cute puppy? Foods that should never be eaten before bedtime? Yes please! I'm all for the NYT shaking things up and injecting a little variety into proceedings. As a wider puzzle, this was another straightforward one too, with even the purple group being easily solvable. But it was that yellow group that really stood out How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know.

CAPISCE, GET IT, SEE, UNDERSTAND PURPLE: WORDS AFTER EYE CANDY, CONTACT, SHADOW, WITNESS 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. ====================================================================== Link to news story: https://www.techradar.com/gaming/nyt-connections-today-answers-hints-6-august- 2024 --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 (Linux/64) * Origin: tqwNet Technology News (1337:1/100) .
