This was one of my favorite types of connecting games – one where you face 16 words that seem to make some sense together before each group reveals themselves.
To me, it typically means getting every foursome in difficulty order, something I think strangely comfortable.
One in a dozen should have been my most difficulty-to-get group, but recently having been a jurist number 12 jumped right out of me.
But really, as for real experiences that inform connections gameplay, I should have got things with ink before like a) I love squid (the band and the marine animal) and b) I am involved in a continuous degradation war with my printer because of its inability to actually print something, especially at moments when I desperate to work.
Is there really a more frustrating technology than the printer?

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.
