The answers to today's Connections, game #466, are YELLOW: PREFIX MEANING 
VERY EXTRA, HYPER, OVER, SUPER GREEN: KINDS OF PARTIES BIRTHDAY, COCKTAIL, 
DINNER, SURPRISE BLUE: PBS SHOWS FRONTLINE, MASTERPIECE, NATURE, NOVA PURPLE: 
PLACES IN FRANCE ANGERS, CHAMPAGNE, NICE, REUNION My rating: Moderate My 
score: Perfect 

Today's Connections really got my brain working  which, I guess, is the 
intention. Green  KINDS OF PARTIES  was not a difficult one, with BIRTHDAY, 
COCKTAIL, DINNER and SURPRISE standing out, but I found yellow and blue 
harder. The problem was largely one of misdirection, with NOVA and SUPER and 
HYPER all sounding like they could go together, but eventually I settled on 
the PREFIX MEANING VERY angle and solved yellow. 

That left blue and purple, and here I was stuck. Maybe if I watched US TV I'd 
have had a better chance with PBS SHOWS, but I'm in the UK and so I'm not 
really aware of the likes of MASTERPIECE and FRONTLINE. My attention was 
instead focused on ANGERS  an odd word for Connections, and one that didn't 
appear to go with anything else. But the word NICE was also nagging away at 
me, and I knew that CHAMPAGNE is a French place too, so put them together 
with REUNION and ANGERS and solved purple. 

How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know. Yesterday's NYT

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.
