Connectionsis a short, daily puzzle game by the New York Times Games. Every day, it provides sixteen words, and you will need to sort them into groups in order to win. The catch? The categories each group of words goes into is a secret, so you will need to intuit it through the words presented to you. However, in order to do this, you will need an intimate idea of all the definitions of each word, the rules of the game, and you might even need a few hints or spoilers to help you get through it.
