Today’s ‘Connections’ Hints And Answers For Monday, December 11 - Forbes

Looking for Sunday’s Connections hints and answers? You can find them here:

Hey, folks! Welcome to the start of a new week. I’m relaxed and raring to go, and I hope you are too.

Today’s Connections hints and answers are coming right up.

How To Play Connections

In Connections, you’re presented with a grid of 16 words. Your task is to arrange them into four groups of four by figuring out the links between them. The groups could be things like horror movie franchises, a type of verb or rappers.

There’s only one solution for each puzzle, and you’ll need to be careful when it comes to words that might fit into more than one category. You can shuffle the words to perhaps help you see links between them.

Each group is color coded. The yellow group is usually the easiest to figure out, blue and green fall in the middle, and the purple group is typically the hardest one to deduce. The purple group often involves wordplay, so bear that in mind.

Select four words you think go together and press Submit. If you make a guess and you’re incorrect, you’ll lose a life. If you’re close to having a correct group, you might see a message telling you that you’re one word away from getting it right, but you’ll still need to figure out which one to swap.

If you make four mistakes, it’s game over. Let’s make sure that doesn’t happen with the help of some hints, and, if you’re really struggling, today’s Connections answers.

This is your final warning!

Purple group — things that are delivered (BABY, BLOW, PACKAGE, SPEECH)

I can’t argue with having three perfect games in a row. That takes my overall streak up to four.

I got the blue group first, since EYELET was a dead giveaway. I then got the greens, which seemed evident enough. That left me with the ideal scenario of only having the yellows and purples left.

I pieced together the yellow group with ease. While I didn’t figure out the purple connection, it didn’t really matter at that point since I’d secured the win.

That’s all there is to it for today’s Connections clues and answers. Be sure to check my blog for hints and the solution for Tuesday’s game if you need them.
