How to play Connections
Playing is easy. Winning is hard. Look at the 16 words and mentally assign them to related groups of four. Click on the four words that you think belong together. The groups are color-coded, but you won’t know what goes where until you see the answers. The yellow group is easiest, then green, then blue, and purple is hardest. Look closely at the words and think of related terms. Sometimes the connection is just part of the word. Once, four words were grouped together because they all started with the name of a rock band, including “Rushmore” and “Journeyman.”
