Today's Connections Hints & Answers For April 7, 2024 (Puzzle #300)

The Sunday Connections always seem to be the most difficult, but we’re not so sure that holds up for today’s categories. We had a fairly quick win on today’s game and even solved it in the game’s most straightforward to trickest order.

If you are having a bit of trouble with today’s words though one of the best tricks to try is utilizing the shuffle button. Oftentimes, the game will set words together that are meant to trick your brain into thinking there is a connection that isn’t there. Shuffling the words right away is a great way to avoid those forced inaccuracies.

Before we just dive into the spoiled answers for today’s Connections we wanted to provide a few hints to help out. Here are today’s categories.

First off, no one says WINK when referring to a short period of time. “Dinner will be ready in a WINK.” That’s not a thing, but we’ll forgive that indiscretion since we still scored a win in this category. FLASH and JIFF were the first words we noticed, and we did waste an attempt trying to fit in ZIP. In the end though, it was a victory and we moved on to the next.

We’ve been in a few SCRAPs before in life, so this was another quick score for us. TANGLE and CLASH started the train with this but we did waste another attempt by trying the word SQUAT. Please don’t ask us why, it clearly doesn’t fit but we went for it anyway, we’re not perfect over here.

So many fun words in today’s game. SQUAT and ZIP were the starting points for us in the blue category and it did take a bit to see how LOVE fit in. Eventually, we saw the tennis connection and it all made sense. You know, JACK LOVE SQUAT ZIP sort of sounds like a weird Dr. Suess book.

Okay, so that wasn’t great, we never claimed to be poets.

Is Mr. Peanut still a thing? I thought they had killed him and rebirthed Baby Nut, which was just the worst idea. In the era of Grogu though, anything is possible. Also, what is a SPAT? I Googled it and I still don’t know, I thought it was when you fight with someone. Was Mr. Peanut and Kool-Aid Man in a skirmish? Luckily, all these words were the leftover ones for us so it was a guaranteed win even if we didn’t understand it.

Another successful game of Connections completed. Before you run off to buy some nuts, why not check out these other fantastic daily browser-based games. From the classic Wordle to the nigh-impossible Password Game, there is a distraction for everyone out there. And don’t worry, we won’t tell your boss you’re not working, but we will tell them about that time you stole our almond milk out of the fridge. We can’t drink regular dairy Helen and you know this!
