Looking for the hints and the answers for Friday’s game of Connections? You can find them here:
Happy Saturday, gang! Here’s hoping it’s warm outside and you’ve got your feet up by a pool — or you’re doing something else that makes you happy. Today’s Connections hints and answers are coming right up.
How To Play Connections
In Connections, you’re presented with a grid of 16 words. Your task is to arrange them into four groups of four by figuring out the links between them. The groups could be things like horror movie franchises, a type of verb or rappers.
There’s only one solution for each puzzle, and you’ll need to be careful when it comes to words that might fit into more than one category. You can shuffle the words to perhaps help you see links between them.
Each group is color coded. The yellow group is the easiest to figure out, blue and green fall in the middle, and the purple group is typically the hardest one to deduce.
Select four words you think go together and press Submit. If you make a guess and you’re incorrect, you’ll lose a life. If you’re close to having a correct group, you might see a message telling you that you’re one word away from getting it right, but you’ll still need to figure out which one to swap.
If you make four mistakes, it’s game over. Let’s make sure that doesn’t happen with the help of some hints, and, if you’re really struggling, today’s Connections answers.

Connections Answers For September 2
Spoiler alert! Don’t scroll any further down the page until you’re ready to find out today’s Connections answers.
This is your final warning!
Today’s connections are…
- Yellow group — au naturel (NAKED, BARE, NUDE, UNCLAD)
- Green group — baked goods (BUN, DANISH, MUFFIN, TURNOVER)
- Blue group — American football actions (FUMBLE, PUNT, SACK, SNAP)
- Purple group — manicure steps (BUFF, CLIP, FILE, POLISH)
I was so close to a perfect game today, but I’ll take a win. I figured out quickly that there was an American football group of words and another for baked goods. But I included TURNOVER instead of SNAP in the blue group at first, causing me a life. I’m okay with that, though, since I got the green, then yellow groups with no issue, leaving me with the purple words to wrap things up.
That’s all there is to it for today’s Connections clues and answers. Be sure to check my blog for hints and the solution for Sunday’s game if you need them.
