New -Connections Today (Play #736) – The answers
The answers to today’s connections, game #736, is …
- Yellow: Expressionless Blank, flat, lifeless, wood
- Green: Drapery hanging items Bracket, curtain, hooks, rod
- Blue: Which drink is served with Coaster, decoration, glass, straw
- Purple: Start with transport methods Busboy, Carbon, Shipshape, Trainee
- My rating: Hard
- My score: 2 Errors
Expression -free was easy enough to get, but from here my progress was clean down to lucky guesses.
Drapery hanging items I only got because I thought we were looking for things that were attached to furniture, so I used a guess by including coaster.
Then for the purple group I would like to have seen starting with transport methods, but I did not. I put four random words together from the eight that were left and were lucky with a ‘one away’, then managed to guess correctly.
I suppose I could have pretended that I was smart enough to see all the links of the day, but the truth is that I fed it all the way.
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.
