Looking for the hints and the answers for Thursday’s game of Connections? You can find them here:
Hello! Hope you’re having a terrific Friday thus far. The weekend is right there. It’s so, so very close. At least we have another game of Connections to help keep us occupied in the meantime. 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 6
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 — inherent nature (ESSENCE, HEART, SPIRIT, SOUL)
- Green group — fermented alcoholic beverages (CIDER, PORT, SAKE, STOUT)
- Blue group — Pixar movies (BRAVE, CARS, COCO, UP)
- Purple group — ____ tape (DEMO, RED, SCOTCH, TICKER)
Rats, I failed today’s game. The Pixar movies immediately jumped out at me, but I tried to shoehorn SOUL in there at first before realizing that could line up with HEART and SPIRIT.
Then the green and purple groups tripped me up. The purple connection didn’t come together for me, so I kept trying to include SCOTCH with the drinks until I ran out of lives. Bah. I’ll get back to winning ways tomorrow, though. Maybe a Scotch will help me think more clearly.
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 Thursday’s game if you need them.
