Good morning! Let’s play Connections, the NYT’s clever word game that challenges you to group answers in various categories. It can be tough, so read on if you need clues.

SPOILER WARNING: Information about NYT Connections today is below, so don’t read on if you don’t want to know the answers.

The answers to today’s Connections, game #462, are…

  • YELLOW: RESIDE DWELL, INHABIT, LIVE, STAY
  • GREEN: DECREASE DECLINE, DROP, DWINDLE, EBB
  • BLUE: DOOFUS CLOWN, DWEEB, SAP, TURKEY
  • PURPLE: MEMBER OF A SEPTET DWARF, SEA, SIN, WONDER

  • My rating: Easy
  • My score: Perfect

My streak reached 10 today, which is not particularly impressive but which does at least point the way to Connections being in the midst of a rare placid period. Will it change soon? Almost certainly. Am I complaining? No!

After all, it’s not like it still didn’t get me thinking. Rather, each of these four groups was solvable with a bit of thinking and without the need for specialist knowledge. Yellow, green and blue were all fairly simple synonym-style groups, purple was the only more difficult one, being a clever connection of ‘things of which there are seven’ – SINs and WONDERs etc. I didn’t need to solve it, because I had the other three by then, but I feel like I’d have had a chance – and that’s all that I ask of my daily Connections, a chance of success.

How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know.


Yesterday’s NYT Connections answers (Saturday, 14 September, game #461)

  • YELLOW: WINE BOTTLE INFO GRAPE, REGION, VINTAGE, WINERY
  • GREEN: CONSOLE INPUTS BUTTON, KNOB, SLIDER, SWITCH
  • BLUE: PREFIXES PRO, RETRO, SUB, SUPER
  • PURPLE: ___ KING BURGER, CALIFORNIA, LION, PROM

What is NYT Connections?

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

On the plus side, you don’t technically need to solve the final one, as you’ll be able to answer that one by a process of elimination. What’s more, you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing room.

It’s a little more involved than something like Wordle, however, and there are plenty of opportunities for the game to trip you up with tricks. For instance, watch out for homophones and other word games that could disguise the answers.

It’s playable for free via the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
