The newest Connections is here and there are a few misdirections set up to trick you into wasting some precious attempts. It’s nothing too devastating, but if you’re not careful you could quickly lose the game. Take your time and be sure about your choices before clicking the Submit button.
One of the best tips for any game of Connections is to use the Shuffle button provided by the game. Oftentimes, our brains will get stuck on an incorrect connection and it’s hard to break that thought once it’s rooted in. Clicking Shuffle a couple of times can help you see different word matches. It’s as simple as moving things around and looking at the words in a different light.
Before we jump right into today’s Connections answers, we wanted to provide you with the daily categories. Sometimes just knowing what is expected can help score an easier win. It’s not guaranteed, but it helps. If you need a little more of a push though the fully spoiled answer sheets are below.
For today’s Connections game, we ended up scoring all the categories in the order that the game claims are easiest to hardest. So yellow, green, blue, and then purple. The genericness of the words in today’s game were a bit confusing for us at first and we really spent a long time trying to decipher. There was a few attempts wasted following some incorrect trails but once we saw CAP and LID we started to match things up a bit better.
Our focus was on ‘Hats’ at first with FUR, CAP, and LID but we just couldn’t find a fourth word. This is where CORK came in and we realized our thoughts were headed in the wrong direction. Add TAB and we started our journey to victory in today’s game.
Green was our number two score and it came quickly. TIME and PERIOD were the obvious two that started it. Together these two words pretty much spelled out the category and it didn’t take long for us to connect SPELL and STRETCH.
With only eight words left the game became much easier, although it wasn’t a guaranteed win. We couldn’t shake the thought of ‘Snake’ being a category with VENOM and EGG, but just couldn’t match up much more than that. LIMIT and CURB were the two words that started the blue category win for us though and after that, it was a quick jaunt to the winners circle.
I had no idea what these words were connected to. I didn’t even know a platypus was venomous. The only two things I do know are that they are psychic, and excellent detectives. Psyduck and Perry will prove me right on these accounts.
