New -Connections Today (Play #602) – The answers
The answers to today’s connections, games #602, are …
- Yellow: Disjicated Blue, down, hangdog, sorry
- Green: Birds that are verbs Duck, gype, hawk, swallow
- Blue: TV comedy families Griffin, Munster, Partridge, Pickles
- Purple: words after “k” Mart, pop, street, Swiss
- My rating: Moderate
- My score: 2 Errors
As the owner of a Hangdog expression (especially when my team loses), it was a relatively easy task to gather a lot of words that mean that depressed was a relatively easy task. Less then TV -comedy families were a mistake to find – my very obvious mistake was to include Swiss (as in Family Robinson). Pickles were a guess that I would never have received otherwise, just based on the fact that I have got a friend whose last name is pickles and I enjoy calling him Mr Pickles.
Birds that are verbs were my second mistake when I initially included the partridge before I realized the mistake in my random ways.

What are new connections?
New Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four objects that share something in common, and each group has another level of difficulty: green is light, yellow a little harder, blue often quite hard and purple usually very difficult.
On the plus side, you do not have to technically solve the last one, as you can answer one by an elimination process. In addition, you can make up to four errors, giving you a little bit of breathing room.
However, it is a little more involved than something like Wordle, and there are plenty of opportunities for the game to get up with tricks. For example, be careful on gay and other word games that can hide the answers.
It can be played free of charge via the new Games website on desktop or mobile.
