The answers to today's Connections, game #729, are YELLOW: KEYBOARD SHORTCUT 
COMMANDS PASTE, PRINT, QUIT, SAVE GREEN: SECURE IN ADVANCE BOOK, ORDER, 
REQUEST, RESERVE BLUE: CRIME ORGANIZATION CREW, FAMILY, RING, SYNDICATE 
PURPLE: SPELLING BEE RANKS MINUS A LETTER GENUS, GOO, MAZING, SLID My rating: 
Moderate My score: 1 mistake 

I really enjoy it when Connections goes meta and references another New York 
Times game. For those of us hooked on Spelling Bee, todays purple group must 
have felt strangely satisfying. 

Not being a regular Spelling Bee player  and certainly never hitting genius 
level when I do play it  I got the hardest group correct not because I knew 
it was SPELLING BEE RANKS MINUS A LETTER but because they all looked like 
words with letters missing. Not quite as satisfying. 

I did, however, know that the green group was SECURE IN ADVANCE  but this was 
still where my error came, as in my original quartet I had SAVE instead or 
ORDER. 

How did you do today? Let me know in the comments below. Yesterday's NYT

PURPLE: HOMOPHONES OF SLANG FOR MONEY BRED, CACHE, DOE, LUTE 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.
