The newest Connections is here and with it comes some brand new category word groups for fans to solve. Today’s answers aren’t too difficult and most players should be able to get through the day with no problem at all. There are, as always, a few tricks up the games sleeves, but nothing too difficult to overcome.
If you’re a puzzle fan who prefers a more challenging game then The Password Game by NeilFun might be right up your alley. Unlike Connections, this very difficult game doesn’t exactly change every day. Players need to come up with a password that covers all of the game’s specific rules. In the beginning this is easy, but as time progresses and more rules are added, things become hectic quite fast. This challenging puzzle is incredibly hard to decipher but is perfect for those who like to push themselves mentally.

If there’s one thing we know, it’s how to eat well and today’s yellow category was a fast score for us. SCARF and WOLF were the first ones to stick out and the other two fell quickly in line for a quick win.

DEGREE and MAJOR were the words that really stuck out in the green category today. This was our ‘leftovers’ category for the day so we only scored it due to being no other choices.

BLANKET |
BROAD |
GENERAL |
SWEEPING |
Our second category score for today as BLANKET and BROAD really stuck out. It took a bit longer than it should have to figure out the other two words and how they all fit together. GENERAL made sense almost right away but SWEEPING took a bit of time. We did end up wasting an attempt trying the first three along with BAR, but it didn’t take much longer after that to find the right combination of words.

BAR |
CADET |
HEATER |
STATION |
Our second to last win for the day and the one that we stared at the most after it was solved. STATION and CADET locked in the win for this one but after we scored the whole category we couldn’t help but think about Space BAR. I admit, it took way too long to realize they were talking about a keyboard and not a cool hangout for aliens in space.
