NYT Puzzle Game 'Connections' Continues to Challenge and Delight Players

The daily word association puzzle from The New York Times remains a hit, with players tackling themes ranging from penalties to nursery rhymes.

The New York Times' 'Connections' puzzle challenges players to group 16 words into four categories based on shared themes.
Each category is assigned a difficulty level, with yellow being the easiest and purple the hardest.
March 14's puzzle featured themes including penalties, impulse buys, movie lengths, and types of roads.
March 15's puzzle included themes like sharp protrusions, stringed instrument parts, litigation verbs, and a nursery rhyme reference.
Created by puzzle editor Wyna Liu, 'Connections' has gained popularity since its launch in June 2023, following other NYT games like Wordle.
