The answers to today's Connections, game #584, are YELLOW: MEANS MECHANISM, 
MEDIUM, TOOL, VEHICLE GREEN: LACKING LIGHT, LOW, SHORT, SHY BLUE: MARTINI 
SPECIFICATIONS DIRTY, DRY, PERFECT, WET PURPLE: FICTIONAL MISTERS BIG, 
PEANUT, ROBOT, TOAD My rating: Tricky My score: 2 mistakes 

Today was one of those days where the yellow group went completely over my 
head and I was able to connect Mr ROBOT with his other pals (purple) and 
MARTINI SPECIFICATIONS (blue) ahead of what is supposed to be the easiest 
foursome. In truth, I still dont get it, but then I am a bit SHY on the 
knowledge front. 

LACKING reminds me of an excellent joke that was recently retold on the 
brilliant Search Engine podcast  two women are complaining about the lousy 
food at a resort theyre staying at. Yes, agrees one of the women, and the 
portions are so small. 

Theres a life lesson there. Less is more, more is less, one of those.

PURPLE: BIRD PLUS LETTER CROWD, GULLY, PUFFING, SWANK 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.
