NYT Connections today (game #439) - the answers
The answers to today's Connections, game #439, are…
- YELLOW: VISUAL INTERFACE DISPLAY, MONITOR, SCREEN, TERMINAL
- GREEN: BURLESQUE WEAR BOA, CORSET, FAN, GLOVES
- BLUE: BEIGE SHADES BUFF, CREAM, FAWN, TAN
- PURPLE: LANGUAGE HOMOPHONES BASK, CHECK, FINISH, TIE
- My rating: Hard
- My score: Fail
OK, I'm done with this stupid game. That's it, over*. This is my third failure in six days, and it's just too hard to be fun. How could I be supposed to know that BUFF is a shade of beige? I've never heard that before. And frankly, I don't care. And why is FAN a part of BURLESQUE WEAR? Do you wear a fan?
Or, on the other hand, I should hang my head and admit that my Connections game has been gone these past few days, and that it's all my fault. The frustrating thing is that I solved yellow, the visual interfaces, after only a few seconds. And looking at the board, it shouldn't have been beyond me to solve two more groups. But for whatever reason, it was.
(*I will be back tomorrow, of course. But I hate Connections right now.)

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.
