NYT Connections today (game #639) - the answers (Image credit: New York Times) The answers to today's Connections, game #639, are YELLOW: VARIATION FROM THE NORM ALTERNATIVE, BREAK, CHANGE, DEPARTURE GREEN: THINGS THAT RING ALARM, BELL, INTERCOM, PHONE BLUE: THINGS TRADITIONALLY MADE OF LEATHER FOOTBALL, MOCCASINS, SADDLE, WALLET PURPLE: SINGER-SONGWRITER PIANISTS KEYS, KING, LEGEND, WONDER My rating: Easy My score: Perfect I had a hunch that WONDER was connected to Stevie, but my uncertainty over who could join him led me to pursue other groups. THINGS TRADITIONALLY MADE OF LEATHER was the first connection I saw, mainly down to MOCCASINS and SADDLE, with my only hesitation being FOOTBALL as I knew that in the early days they were called pigskins. After initially thinking that both BREAK and DEPARTURE had vacations in common, I saw that difference or VARIATION FROM THE NORM was the link. In a huge departure from the norm for me, I managed to get todays puzzle without a mistake. A unique and enjoyable experience. How did you do today? Let me know in the comments below.

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-11-march- 2025 --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 (Linux/64) * Origin: tqwNet Technology News (1337:1/100) .
