The answers to today’s Connections, game #792, are…

- BLUE: SPECS ON CONSUMER PACKAGING COUNT, MEASURE, VOLUME, WEIGHT
- PURPLE: DARK ____ AGES, CHOCOLATE, HORSE, MATTER
- My rating: Easy
- My score: Perfect
After a run of difficult games, this edition felt relatively easy – so long as you avoided getting waylaid by attempting to put together a color group.
Fortunately, I connected the basic yellow group quickly – quite possibly because all four words describe my taste in T-shirts, and my dislike of anything involving a backprint (what is the point, please?)
I’ll be honest, I didn’t put together the blue group because I thought it would be SPECS ON CONSUMER PACKAGING, just that they all seemed like measurements. It’s always a good Connections day when getting it wrong is still getting it right.

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.
