Looking for the hints and the answers for Saturday’s game of Connections? You can find them here:
Hey, folks! Hope you’re having a wonderful, edifying Sunday. I’m making the most of this weekend by trying to wipe out some sleep debt. I’m already feeling better for it. 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 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 October 15
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 — tools (FILE, HAMMER, LEVEL, SAW)
- Green group — pull (JERK, TUG, WRENCH, YANK)
- Blue group — shortcut commands (COPY, FIND, PRINT, SAVE)
- Purple group — title movie animals (BABE, BEETHOVEN, CHARLOTTE, WILLY)
My win streak is up to three. Though I didn’t have a perfect game, I still enjoyed today’s round.
I got the blue group first after one mistake when I initially included FILE. My next guess was for the yellow group but after getting that wrong (thanks to the WRENCH red herring), I changed tacks.
The purple words then clicked for my second completed group. The name of this connection is a little odd though. “Animals named in movie titles” might have been better.
The green group was next. I wrapped up today’s win with the yellow words.
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.
