How I solved todays Connections
Interesting board today!
I dont see a fourth quite yet.
GUSTO, ZEST, PASSION, and RELISH could all refer to a deep love or interest.
JENNY is a weird one.
Oh, its not the first letter thing, its the firstsoundsthat are changed.
OK, I think MICROWAVE, SHOEBOX, BRICK, and FISH TANK all go together as box-shaped objects.
That leaves MUCHO, BEAUCOUP, MOLTO, and MULTI.
I guess MULTI is just the Latin prefix meaning several.
Youll see a game board with 16 tiles, each with one word or phrase.
Your job is to select a group of four tiles that have something in common.
Select four items and hit the Submit button.
If you guessed correctly, the category and color will be revealed.
(Yellow is easiest, followed by green, then blue, then purple.)
If your guess was incorrect, youll get a chance to hit it one more time.
You win when youve correctly identified all four groups.
But if you make four mistakes before you finish, the game ends and the answers are revealed.
Expect to see overlapping groups.
So dont hit submit until youve confirmed that your group of four containsonlythose four things.
If youre stuck, another strategy is to look at the words that seem to havenoconnection to the others.
Check back tomorrow for the next puzzle!
