NYT Connections today (game #530) – the answers
The answers to today’s Connections, game #530, are…
- YELLOW: PUBLICITY ATTENTION, COVERAGE, EXPOSURE, PRESS
- GREEN: POINT OF VIEW ANGLE, LENS, PERSPECTIVE, POSITION
- BLUE: WORK COMMUNICATION PLATFORMS MEET, SLACK, TEAMS, ZOOM
- PURPLE: “___ ISLAND” FANTASY, LOVE, SHUTTER, TREASURE
- My rating: Easy
- My score: Perfect
I came so close to scoring a reverse rainbow today, where you solve the puzzles from hard to easy, but sadly got blue before purple. However, the fact that I was so near reflects that even the supposedly tough groups today were rather simple.
That said, blue may not be such a cinch if you haven’t been an office worker of some kind in the past few years. To those of us who have, MEET, SLACK, TEAMS and ZOOM are as familiar as our own names – hence why I solved it so quickly.
Purple was a piece of cake too. This was a ‘blank’ type, as they so often are, and the missing word on this occasion was ISLAND. With TREASURE, FANTASY, LOVE and SHUTTER as the solutions, there was nothing particularly difficult about it, certainly compared to yesterday’s effort (which I failed). SHUTTER is probably the least obvious of them, but is my favorite of the quartet; it’s a 2010 Martin Scorsese film.
Anyway, with the two supposedly tough ones done, it was even easier to complete green (POINT OF VIEW) and yellow (PUBLICITY) and get my streak going again.
How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know.

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.
