Some days the connecting network is a fog of words that do not make sense at all, and I definitely do not see any links. Other days, the fogs are slowly clearing to reveal one or two vague joint. Very occasionally I see the groups at four immediately and I am in and out in an instant, thinking that I am a pretty clever clogging (but knowing that I am far from alone in mastering the rare easy game).
Today was one of those days. Not as straightforward as William says to shoot an arrow at an apple on his son’s head, but pretty close.
There will be overtures composed around this puzzle.

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.
