Today felt like an exceptionally easy day. Which makes me suspect that more 
tricky challenges may be lurking in the week ahead. Not that I dont relish 
the chance to finish a round of Connections quickly and feel all smug about 
it. 

But lets be honest, today was a doddle. On any other day, the purple group 
could have passed as a yellow. 

The NYT even resisted the temptation of putting something weird in the ITEM 
IN A COLLECTION group because, let's face it, people collect anything. 

Take me for example, I speak here as someone with collections of autographs 
on the back of cigarette packets, JD Salinger first editions, Portuguese 
sardine tins, 3D postcards from the 1960s (mainly poodles), and Japanese 
football shirts. Oh and all the normal stuff. Yesterday's NYT Connections

SHOW 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.
