The answers to today's Connections, game #484, are YELLOW: KNUCKLEHEAD 
DING-DONG, DODO, YAHOO, YO-YO GREEN: CAR ONOMATOPOEIA BEEP BEEP, PURR, SKRRT, 
VROOM BLUE SOUNDS OF LAUGHTER HAR-HAR, HOOT, WHOOP, YUK PURPLE: FAMOUS 
PRIMATES BUBBLES, GEORGE, KING KONG, KOKO My rating: Difficult My score: Fail 

Wow, this was really tough. I failed to solve it  in fact, I failed to solve 
all but one of the groups  but I don't feel particularly upset with myself, 
because it was just too difficult. 

The one I did get was purple, FAMOUS PRIMATES. This was supposedly the 
hardest of the four, but I found it far more manageable than the other three 
(obviously, given that I failed them all). I did make a start on the others  
for instance I spotted that CAR ONOMATOPOEIA was probably one, with BEEP BEEP 
and VROOM, but had never heard SKRRT and thought that HOOT was probably one 
too. The others all just baffled me a bit, but I doubt I'm the only one to 
struggle here. 

How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know. Yesterday's NYT

COTTAGE, CREAM, GOAT, STRING What is NYT Connections? 

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.
