New -Connections Today (Play #733) – The answers

The answers to today’s connections, game #733, are …
- Yellow: Perspective Angle, bent, lens, point of view
- Green: Set in an ice cream shop Cone, cup, small spoon, scoop
- Blue: Hit Songs of 1998 Closing time, iris, one week, too close
- Purple: hot ___ Dog, potato rod, water bottle
- My rating: Moderate
- My score: Perfect
I asked little spoon as something seen in an ice cream shop, but then I remembered that they actually hold long little spoons.
They are there for the consumption of ice -sundaes, where long small spoons are required to get to the bottom of the glass. In some companies, they are Als used to offer samples to derede customers who can’t decide if they want salted caramel or raspberry ripel-flavored scoops.
After getting the first two groups pretty quickly, I struggled to see some connections between the remaining eight words before, after a lot of turmoil, and worked out that the connection was hot.
I am lucky that I got the purple group when I didn’t know any of Hit songs from 1998. This is probably because I was too busy in a French melancholy DIS listening to Air’s Moon Safari Album 20 million times for the whole of 1998 to pay attention to Semisonic (closing time) or Goo Goo Dolls (Iris).
How did you do today? Tell me that in the comments below.

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.
