NYT Connections today (game #775) - the answers (Image credit: New York Times) The answers to today's Connections, game #775, are YELLOW: HUSH-HUSH MUM, PRIVATE, QUIET, SECRET GREEN: STATE ABBREVIATIONS IN, MA, OH, OK BLUE: BASEBALL CALLS BALL, FAIR, FOUL, OUT PURPLE: QUEEN __ BED, BEE, MARY, MOTHER My rating: Hard My score: Perfect My brain always goes into a kernel panic when there are two-letter words in Connections, which is why I'm rating todays puzzle as hard. That said, there were only four of them which meant that you could get STATE ABBREVIATIONS even if it wasnt immediately obvious. It wasnt to me, so I was relieved to have guessed them correctly and not fallen into a dastardly trap. Fortunately, my lack of baseball knowledge didnt stand in the way of completing all four groups without a mistake, but I did waver over whether to include MOTHER or FOUL in the QUEEN group. I was imagining some kind of chess infraction.

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-25-july-2 025 --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 (Linux/64) * Origin: tqwNet Technology News (1337:1/100) .
