Looking for the hints and the answers for Saturday’s game of Connections? You can find them here:
Hey there, folks! I hope you’re having a relaxing and re-energizing Sunday. I also hope you’re taking a few minutes to play the latest game of Connections (which I found more difficult than yesterday’s). 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 August 20
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 — camping supplies (COOLER, LANTERN, SLEEPING BAG, TENT)
- Green group — insult (BARB, DIG, DISS, JAB)
- Blue group — tiny (MINUTE, SLIGHT, SMALL, WEE)
- Purple group — happy ____ (CAMPER, HOUR, MEAL, MEDIUM)
SLEEPING BAG was a clear sign that there was a group of camping gear words, and yet I somehow did not get the yellow group. I figured out the blue group first after realizing there were no other time words to go with MINUTE and HOUR. The insult group was pretty apparent too. But I ran into a brick wall with the yellow and purple groups today because I got hung up on CAMPER being part of the camping group. Darn.
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 Monday’s game if you need them.
