New -Connections Today (Play #713) – The answers

The answers to today’s connections, game #713, are …
- Yellow: Baby equipment Slap, bottle, screen, stroller
- Green: sorts of pants minus “s” Capri, Jean, Jogger, Slack
- Blue: New York Sports Team Members Jet, Met, Net, Ranger
- Purple: black female writers Butler, gay, hooks, walker
- My rating: Easy
- My score: Perfect
I’m sure I wasn’t alone in playing with jogs, strollers and roller – which in my opinion is all varieties of baby buggy. Fortunately, I did not find a fourth option, so I changed my focus.
Although I am in the UK and do not follow us sports, branding of many teams is global and it is probably easier to get jerseys for mets, jets, nets and rangers in London than in some American cities. So the blue group was easy to see – lighter than the purple group that contained several black female writers with whom I was unaware.
Fortunately at this point I have connected kind of pants minus “s” and baby equipment.
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.
