Looking for Friday’s Connections hints and answers? You can find them here:
Welcome to the weekend, gang! If you’re looking for a horror movie to watch for Halloween that’s not too scary, I recommend Housebound and Tucker and Dale vs. Evil. They both lean into comedy and I find them utterly delightful.
Anyway, 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 usually the easiest to figure out, blue and green fall in the middle, and the purple group is typically the hardest one to deduce. The purple group often involves wordplay, so bear that in mind.
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 October 28
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 — senses (SIGHT, SMELL, TASTE, TOUCH)
- Green group — appearance (DRESS, LOOK, MANNER, STYLE)
- Blue group — “agree!” (DITTO, LIKEWISE, SAME, SECOND)
- Purple group — ____ moon (BLUE, HARVEST, NEW, SAILOR)
Easy peasy for me today. A perfect game makes it six wins on the trot.
The yellow words came together first. LOOK was a potential red herring, but it didn’t make sense to have that instead of SIGHT. The blue group was up next.
Although I didn’t quite make the connection between the purple words, I got the green group with no problems and was able to clean up from there. It’s pretty fun to see a Sailor Moon reference in Connections.
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.
