The answers to today’s connections, game #674, are …
- Yellow: Limit Block, check, dam, stop
- Green: Ticket events Concert, Games, Movies, Play
- Blue: associated with the game Oregon Trail
- Dysentery, Ford, Hunt, Oxen
- Purple: What “Ford” can refer to Actor, car, director, president
- My rating: Hard
- My score: Fail
I failed completely again and wasted a lot of time to beam the wrong trees.
After relinquishing relatively easily, I struggled with the remaining 12 words. I was convinced that there was a group about songwriting with bridge, hook and choir, all of which were key elements in a hit tune. When I moved after the fourth word, I included Bell and got the feared “groups of four” pop-up.
After another mistake, I switched to collect a group associated with Peter Pan-Pan and Hook were locks, but I went down a dead end and thought we were looking for elements in a specific scene, so I included Bell and Bridge, all very much.
With “One Away”, I really should have got the purple group, but I made the wrong choices and went too completely and tragedy.
Two defeats in a row are not a good look.

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.
