Looking for Monday’s Connections hints and answers? You can find them here:
Happy Halloween, everyone! I hope you’re making the most of the occasion if you celebrate it. If not, I hope you’re having a wonderful day 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.

A perfect game takes me to nine wins in a row. I believe that’s a personal best! Hooray for me.
I got the yellow words first, helped by the fact that I did not know an ASTER is also a type of plant. Bearing in mind today’s date, I figured something spooky might be going on, so the blue group was next (I really ought to finally watch Midsommar).
From there, the green group was apparent enough, leaving me with the purple words. I didn’t figure out that connection before hitting the Submit button.
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 Wednesday’s game if you need them.
