Looking for the hints and the answers for Friday’s game of Connections? You can find them here:
Hey, folks! Welcome to the weekend. Today’s game of Connections might look tricky at first, but take some time to mull it over and I’m sure you’ll figure it out. In any case, I’ve got some clues on deck to help you out.
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.

A bit of a gimmicky game today, but I enjoyed it. That’s five wins in a row for me. Here’s hoping I can hit a new personal best tomorrow.
I thought the green group was for things of natural beauty, so I had ROSE in there instead of SAVANNA, but I changed my mind to the correct answer before I submitted my guess. I got the blue group after a little trial and error with two mistakes before realizing what the connection was. I then figured out the rhyming scheme for the yellow words, leaving me with the purples for the victory.
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.
