INFO and SCOOP could go together, but I dont think anything else fits with them.
PORCH, DECK, YARD, and STOOP are all features of the front or rear of a home.
Oh wait, INFO probably goes with SCOOP, DISH, and SNOOPthey all refer to covert gossip.
Oh wait, isnt there a dog named DROOPy?
One away there too!
That leaves GOOF, DROOP, SNOOP, and LAD as my last category.
Oh, theyre all cartoon dogs.
LADy is fromLady and the Tramp.
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 have another go.
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.
