The answers to today’s Connections game #357 are…

YELLOW: COMPLIANT NEXT, LEMMINGS, PUPPETS, SHEEP
GREEN: CORPORATE SHARE OWNERSHIP OFFERS SHARES, OPTIONS, SHARES, SHARES
BLUE: CITIES OF THE UNITED STATES BILLINGS, BUFFALO, MOBILE, PHOENIX
PURPLE: WHAT “DIGS” COULD MEAN APARTMENT, INSULTS, LIKES, SHOVELS

My ranking: Easy
My score: Perfect

A much simpler Connections puzzle from the New York Times today. At first I was a little distracted by the presence of LEMMINGS, SHEEP and BUFFALO, and thought maybe they were animals – although I have no idea exactly to the link between lemmings and buffaloes. Then I thought a little more and realized that the presence of FOLLOWERS and PUPPETS could be added to LEMMINGS and SHEEP to make COMPLIERS.

For the second group, I almost went for a social media angle: SHARES and LIKES. But again, rethink it and replace LIKES with SHARES, OPTIONS and ACTIONS. As is often the case, the third was much more difficult. But BUFFALO and PHOENIX are both obvious US cities (even for someone in the UK like me), and I had also heard of BILLINGS and MOBILE, so I was able to solve the US CITIES group. No, I didn’t know what the answer was in the fourth set – but at that point it didn’t matter anymore.

What is NYT Connections?

NYT Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games created by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four elements that share something in common, and each group has a different difficulty level: green is easy, yellow is a little more difficult, blue is often quite difficult, and purple is usually very difficult. difficult.

On the plus side, you technically don’t need to solve the final question, as you will be able to answer it through a process of elimination. Additionally, you can make up to four mistakes, giving you some breathing room.

However, it’s a bit more complex than something like Wordle, and the game provides plenty of opportunities to trip you up with tricks. For example, watch out for homophones and other puns that could obscure the answers.

It is playable for free via the NYT Games website on computer or mobile.
