The answers to today's Connections, game #536, are YELLOW: APPRECIATION 
CREDIT, PRAISE, RECOGNITION, THANKS GREEN: FRAUDSTER CHEAT, CON, FAKE, QUACK 
BLUE: EAT VORACIOUSLY BOLT, DOWN, GOBBLE, SCARF PURPLE: ___ TUESDAY FAT, 
GIVING, SUPER, TACO My rating: Easy My score: Perfect 

Happy Thanksgiving to those of you in the US! And er, happy Black Friday Eve 
to everyone else. Inevitably, the NYT threw in some misdirection on the grid 
today, placing QUACK, GOBBLE, THANKS and GIVING as the first four words on 
the top row. 

But of course this was a red herring. QUACK went with CHEAT, CON and FAKE for 
the green group (FRAUDSTER), while GOBBLE was grouped with BOLT, DOWN and 
SCARF for the timely EAT VORACIOUSLY (blue). 

Yellow, as is usually the case, was simpler still  APPRECIATION was simply a 
bunch of synonyms including the aforementioned THANKS, which meant I didn't 
need to solve the hardest purple group. This included GIVING, which formed a 
group of the blank kind with FAT, SUPER and TACO. The connection was 
apparently ___ TUESDAY, but given that SUPER TUESDAY was the only one of the 
four I've heard of, there was no way I was ever going to get that.

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.
