Right, the answers are below, so DO NOT SCROLL ANY FURTHER IF YOU DON'T WANT

The answers to today's Connections, game #468, are YELLOW: CLAIRVOYANT 
MEDIUM, MYSTIC, ORACLE, PSYCHIC GREEN: SPECIAL EDITION ADJECTIVES 
COLLECTIBLE, EXCLUSIVE, LIMITED, RARE BLUE: GREAT JOB! IMPRESSIVE, NICE, 
PROPS, WELL DONE PURPLE: EXTREMELY AWFUL, BLOODY, REAL, WAY My rating: Easy 
My score: 1 mistake 

This was a surprisingly easy Connections puzzle even by recent examples, 
although I still contrived to make one mistake. That was a silly one; I'm 
sure the misdirection was intended by the NYT, and I walked right into the 
trap. I'm talking, of course, about BLOODY, RARE, WELL DONE and MEDIUM  which 
could have been 'Ways to cook a steak'. But no, all four words actually 
belonged to alternative groups. 

That quickly became apparent, when I looked again and realized that MEDIUM, 
MYSTIC, ORACLE and PSYCHIC were all words for a CLAIRVOYANT (yellow) and that 
COLLECTIBLE, EXCLUSIVE, LIMITED, RARE all formed a green group for SPECIAL 
EDITION ADJECTIVES. 

That left blue and purple, and this time neither was too complicated. No 
'blank something' type, no clever cryptic connections  simply a couple of 
groups, both of which were fairly obvious.

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.
