The answers to today's Connections, game #461, are YELLOW: WINE BOTTLE INFO 
GRAPE, REGION, VINTAGE, WINERY GREEN: CONSOLE INPUTS BUTTON, KNOB, SLIDER, 
SWITCH BLUE: PREFIXES PRO, RETRO, SUB, SUPER PURPLE: ___ KING BURGER, 
CALIFORNIA, LION, PROM My rating: Easy My score: 2 mistakes 

Today's Connections is another fairly simple one. For starters, it doesn't 
require too much specialist knowledge  BUTTON, KNOB, SLIDER and SWITCH, for 
instance, are just generally used words. And while the WINE BOTTLE INFO group 
might be easier for people who drink wine, none of the answers are remotely 
obscure. 

The one I didn't technically solve was blue  which in hindsight was one of 
the easiest. That group was PREFIXES, with the answers being PRO, SUB, RETRO 
and SUPER  all of which really should have occurred to me. But instead I 
focused on the [blank] king group, having spotted BURGER, LION and PROM. 
Trouble was, I couldn't find the fourth one, guessing SUPER and PRO 
(randomly) before finally going for CALIFORNIA to complete the set. I don't 
know what a CALIFORNIA KING is, but I solved it in the end, so who cares

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.
