NYT Connections today (game #622) – the answers
The answers to today’s Connections, game #622, are…
- YELLOW: MEMBER OF A TEAM WITH THE MOST CHAMPIONSHIPS IN THEIR RESPECTIVE SPORTS CANADIEN, CELTIC, PACKER, YANKEE
- GREEN: CREATE SOME VOLUME/TEXTURE IN HAIR CRIMP, CURL, FEATHER, TEASE
- BLUE: SUPPLIES FOR MACARONI ART GLITTER, GLUE, MACARONI, PAPER
- PURPLE: WORDS AFTER “GOLDEN” DOODLE, GOOSE, PARACHUTE, ROD
- My rating: Easy
- My score: Perfect
I’m not a huge sports person – at least when it comes to American sports (I’m in the UK) – which is probably why I got CREATE SOME VOLUME/TEXTURE IN HAIR as the first group today, despite it not technically being the easiest. Although I note ‘backcoming’ is missing, the tried and trusted method during my goth years – now long receded.
However, I still managed to get MEMBER OF A TEAM WITH THE MOST CHAMPIONSHIPS IN THEIR RESPECTIVE SPORTS (rolls off the tongue) quickly, largely because of the spelling of CANADIEN rather than any actual knowledge.
Getting this in the bag helped me resist the urge to fall into the MACARONI-shaped YANKEE DOODLE hole.
How did you do today? Let me know in the comments below.

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.
