Connections

FIND THE HIDDEN LINK

Some words seem like perfect matches, but that's exactly what makes this puzzle so clever. Instead of searching for a single answer, you'll study 16 words and uncover the hidden relationships that connect them into four groups of four. From obvious categories to tricky wordplay, every round rewards observation and flexible thinking.

Four Categories Waiting to Be Discovered

Each puzzle starts with a grid of 16 words. Your goal is to build four correct groups, with every group sharing one specific connection. Some categories are easy to recognize, while others rely on double meanings, common phrases, or unexpected associations.

You can make four mistakes before the round ends, so rushing rarely pays off. As you solve each group, its difficulty is revealed through color, from Yellow for the most straightforward category to Purple for the toughest challenge.

How to Play

• Click or tap a word to select it.
• Select four words that you think belong together.
• Press Submit to check your group.
• Use Shuffle to rearrange the board if you want a fresh perspective.

Basic Rules

• Sort all 16 words into four groups of four.
• Every group must share one hidden connection.
• You have four mistakes before the game ends.
• If you see a One Away hint, three of your chosen words are correct and only one needs to be replaced.

Simple Tips to Solve More Puzzles

• Find the most obvious group first to reduce the number of remaining possibilities.
• Don't submit a group just because three words seem to fit - check that the fourth follows the same pattern.
• Think beyond a word's first meaning, as many clues have multiple interpretations.
• Use Shuffle whenever your eyes keep seeing the same combinations.
