Connections spoiler warning
Every answer is available below, but hints, categories, and words stay covered until you choose to reveal them.
Yellow Group (Easiest)
Start with the most direct everyday meanings. This set usually has the cleanest shared idea.
BLACK-AND-YELLOW
Green Group (Easy)
Look for a shared family, type, or common phrase that is one step beyond the obvious meanings.
PLACES WHERE EVERYONE THINKS THE SAME WAYS
Blue Group (Medium)
Think of entertainment titles and named works, not only dictionary definitions.
COMIC BOOK ARTIST'S TOOLS
Purple Group (Hardest)
Expect wordplay. Sounds, hidden pieces, letter changes, or phrase endings may matter more than definitions.
