The answers to today's Connections, game #892, are YELLOW: STOCKY HUSKY, 
SOLID, SQUAT, THICK GREEN: STEER DIRECT, GUIDE, LEAD, SHEPHERD BLUE: SECOND 
WORDS IN POE STORIES, AFTER "THE" CASK, FALL, MASQUE, PIT PURPLE: ORGAN PLUS 
A LETTER COLONY, HEARTH, LUNGE, SKINK My rating: Hard My score: 2 mistakes 

I had a couple of bad ideas before I hit on the right ones. The first was 
thinking SQUAT and LUNGE should be joined by two exercises that dont exist 
(SKINK and SHEPHERD). The next was connecting PIT, FALL, HEARTH and SQUAT 
with some vague notion that they had something to do with the earth. 

Fortunately I came to my senses and got STEER pretty quickly. My triumph was 
getting the purple/hardest group after seeing the link between heart and lung 
in HEARTH and LUNGE. 

With just eight tiles left I assembled STOCKY though a process of 
elimination, with HUSKY being a bit of a gamble  but one that made a lot more 
sense than the other four tiles that became SECOND WORDS IN POE STORIES, 
AFTER THE. Yesterday's NYT Connections answers (Tuesday, November 18, game

STONE, SWANK PURPLE: ENDING IN SYNONYMS FOR "LOCATION" COMMONPLACE, 
NEEDLEPOINT, PARASITE, SUNSPOT 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.
