The answers to today's Connections, game #715, are YELLOW: ITEMS IN A LINEN CLOSET PILLOWCASE, SHEET, TOWEL, WASHCLOTH GREEN: DIAMETRIC COUNTER,
OPPOSITE, POLAR, REVERSE BLUE: LINGERIE GARTER, HOSE, SLIP, TEDDY PURPLE:
CARD GAMES WITH FIRST LETTER CHANGED DIN, FRIDGE, GUMMY, JOKER My rating: Moderate My score: 1 mistake

I immediately thought that JOKER must have something to do with cards and I wasnt wrong. However, I didnt see CARD GAMES WITH FIRST LETTER CHANGED; kudos if youre one of those clever people who did.

ITEMS IN A LINEN CLOSET was easier to spot, although I had white wash load in my mind, as thats when I tend to see them together rather than a designated area.

I made my mistake with DIAMETRIC, thinking that POLAR didnt fit. I took a
stab in the dark with SLIP, thinking the group had something to do with evasion or trickery before seeing sense.

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.
