How to play Connections
The game is easy. Winning is hard. Look at the 16 words and mentally put them into related groups of four. Click on the four words you think go together. The groups are color-coded, although you don’t know what goes where until you see the answers. The yellow group is the easiest, then green, then blue and purple is the hardest. Look carefully at the words and think of related terms. Sometimes the link is only part of the word. Four words were once grouped because each began with the name of a rock band, including “Rushmore” and “Journeyman.”
