Getting the groups yourself

Connections hands you sixteen words and asks for four groups of four. Each group shares one link: a meaning, a sound, a hidden word, or a word they can all follow. You may make four mistakes before the game ends.

The puzzle is built to mislead. Several words usually fit two groups, so the first set you spot is often a trap. Before you submit anything, try to name all four links in your head.

  • Start with the group you are surest of and lock it in. Fewer words left means fewer traps.
  • If the game says one away, keep three and swap just one word.
  • Purple links are often wordplay, such as words that hide a smaller word or form a phrase with one extra word.
