YELLOW: CORE GREEN: COMPLICATED BLUE: SYMBOLS USED IN MAKING LISTS PURPLE: WHAT CROSS MIGHT MEAN Right, the answers are below, so DO NOT SCROLL ANY FURTHER IF YOU DON'T WANT TO SEE THEM. NYT Connections today (game #365) - the answers (Image credit: New York Times) The answers to today's Connections, game #365, are YELLOW: CORE CRUX, ESSENCE, HEART, SUBSTANCE GREEN: COMPLICATED BAROQUE, COMPLEX, ELABORATE, INVOLVED BLUE: SYMBOLS USED IN MAKING LISTS ARROW, BULLET, CHECKBOX, HYPHEN PURPLE: WHAT CROSS MIGHT MEAN ANGRY, BETRAY, CRUCIFIX, HYBRID My rating: Easy My score: Perfect Here's another Connections puzzle that I solved out of order, so to speak. But that got me thinking: how do the NYT decide which is the more difficult of each? It's not always obvious to me, and the idea that ARROW, BULLET, CHECKBOX and HYPHEN (blue) are harder to group than BAROQUE, COMPLEX, ELABORATE and INVOLVED (green) seems unlikely. Anyway, that aside this is a relatively standard Connections game. And, unusually, one where I genuinely did find all four answers, although I didn't spot the connection between the purple group until I only had those four words left. How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know.

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-10-june-2 024 --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 (Linux/64) * Origin: tqwNet Technology News (1337:1/100) .
