NYT Connections today (game #911) - the answers (Image credit: New York Times) The answers to today's Connections, game #911, are YELLOW: GOAD, WITH "ON" EGG, PUSH, SPUR, URGE GREEN: FAMOUS STREETS IN LOS ANGELES MULHOLLAND, RODEO, SUNSET, VINE BLUE: MEMBER OF A DALLAS PRO SPORTS TEAM COWBOY, MAVERICK, STAR, WING PURPLE: EUROPEAN CAPITALS MINUS SECOND-TO-LAST LETTER MINK, PARS, ROE, SOFA My rating: Hard My score: 1 mistake Before settling on FAMOUS STREETS IN LOS ANGELES I was convinced that there was a western-themed group with COWBOY, SPUR, MAVERICK and RODEO but I thankfully abandoned this thread after it cost me a mistake. Both SPUR and STAR did make me think that there was a sports theme somewhere in this mix, but I stuck to the task and added SPUR to the motivational yellow group, GOAD, WITH ON. I am pleased I got the blue group, as my US sports knowledge is not great, but I knew that the Mavs and Cowboys were Dallas teams, so I took a lucky punt with STAR and WING. With just eight tiles left I was on pretty safe ground as I decided theres unlikely to be a team called the Dallas Sofas.

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. ====================================================================== Link to news story: https://www.techradar.com/gaming/nyt-connections-today-answers-hints-8-decembe r-2025 --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A49 (Linux/64) * Origin: tqwNet Technology News (1337:1/100) .
