- My rating: Hard
- My score: Fail
Oh dear. This is my second fail in only a few days, so it's back to the drawing board for me, streak-wise. Not that I feel too bad about losing today's game – I'd never heard of several of the elements mentioned, or at least not in the context in which they're used here.
Things started off well enough, with ADULT, BLUE, SPICY and SUGGESTIVE all ordering themselves in my mind into the blue group, RISQUÉ. Yellow – ESCAPADE – was also easy enough. But there I stalled. I'm not a pickle eater, so didn't really have a chance with the green group. And though I should probably have made some progress with the purple group, I've never, ever heard the phrase CUT THE CHEESE. You learn something new every day, I guess…

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.
