The answers to today's Connections, game #476, are YELLOW: MAKE GOOD ON, AS A PROMISE FULFILL, HONOR, KEEP, UPHOLD GREEN: BEDDING BLANKET, SHAM, SHEET, THROW BLUE: ACTIONS IN CARD GAMES DISCARD, DRAW, PASS, PLAY PURPLE: CABINET DEPARTMENTS ENERGY, JUSTICE, LABOR, STATE My rating: Moderate My score: 2 mistakes

Oh NYT, you devious things. I lost two guesses today on the blue group, ACTIONS IN CARD GAMES, because of some classic misdirection. The eventual answers were DISCARD, DRAW, PASS and PLAY, but I instead had KEEP in there as one of the solutions, which does make sense but which obviously wasn't right.

With two guesses down I was a little worried, so moved on to other categories and instead got the yellow MAKE GOOD ON, AS A PROMISE group, which was pretty straightforward once I focused. I then got the supposedly most difficult one, the purple group, after realizing that ENERGY, JUSTICE, LABOR and STATE were all CABINET DEPARTMENTS. That made blue easier, and I solved green by
default.

How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know. Yesterday's NYT Connections answers (Saturday, 28 September, game #475) YELLOW: COMPOSITE BLEND, COMPOUND, CROSS, HYBRID GREEN: EMBED LODGE, PLANT, STICK, WEDGE BLUE: ITEMS IN A MONOPOLY BOX DEED, HOTEL, HOUSE, TOKEN PURPLE: ___ CONTROL BIRTH, CRUISE, QUALITY, REMOTE 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.
