NYT Connections today (game #827) - the answers (Image credit: New York Times) The answers to today's Connections, game #827, are YELLOW: FLOORING OPTIONS CARPET, LAMINATE, TILE, WOOD GREEN: BEACHY AREA BANK, COAST, SHORE, STRAND BLUE: ROMANTIC VIBE CHEMISTRY, CONNECTION, FIREWORKS, SPARK PURPLE: MEMBER OF A CLASSIC BACKING BAND BANSHEE, HEARTBREAKER, PIP, WAILER My rating: Easy My score: Perfect For the second day in a row I got the purple group before the end. This is unprecedented, but for music fans today's so-called hardest group was easy. That said, I doubt either BANSHEE would consider themself a MEMBER OF A CLASSIC BACKING BAND; a member of a classic band, yes, but Siouxsies backing band? You may be able to tell I was once a music journalist; this is the sort of argument Id have to listen to for hours back in the day. Anyway, I digress. The other three categories confirm this was an easy round, devoid of the usual traps and trickery. FLOORING OPTIONS? BEACHY AREA? ROMANTIC VIBE? I think this qualifies as one of the most normal Connections games of 2025. Right, now I'm off to listen to Spellbound. Yesterday's NYT Connections answers (Sunday, September 14, game #826) YELLOW: ENTRYWAY DOOR, GATE, HATCH, PORTAL GREEN: MAP FEATURES COMPASS, INSET, KEY, SCALE BLUE: SURPASS BEAT, BEST, BETTER, TOP PURPLE: STREETS WITH SYMBOLIC IMPORTANCE DOWNING, FLEET, MAIN, WALL 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. ====================================================================== Link to news story: https://www.techradar.com/gaming/nyt-connections-today-answers-hints-15-septem ber-2025 --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A49 (Linux/64) * Origin: tqwNet Technology News (1337:1/100) .
