The answers to today's Connections, game #460, are YELLOW: VITALITY ENERGY, JUICE, LIFE, ZIP GREEN: PALINDROMES FEATURING E LEVEL, PEP, REFER, TENET

Is it just me or has Connections got a lot easier lately? I don't feel like I'm doing anything different, but after multiple failures over a two-to-three-week period I've now beaten eight in a row. And today's might be the simplest of them.

The only one I didn't solve was green PALINDROMES FEATURING E. I'm surprised this was the green group, because it's harder than either blue or purple, and they are meant to be in difficulty order. I guess finding CAR MODELS (purple) might be tricky if you're not a driver, but they're all generally well known. And as for blue is there anyone on the planet who wouldn't spot that the BEANS, COW, GIANT and JACK go together?

Not that I'm complaining it's nice to actually feel like I'm good at this game!

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.
