Four or more clues. One common link. Can you spot it?
Each round gives you 4–8 concepts and four possible connections. You have one answer per round. A correct connection earns 1,000 points; a wrong answer earns none and reveals the explanation.
Connections could not be loaded. Please try again.
Which link fits all four: hot drinks, drinks, or things made from beans?
Drinks. Cider is not necessarily hot, and tea and cider do not come from beans. A useful connection must fit every clue.
Each round shows 4–8 clues and four possible connections. Identify the one idea that links every clue. Choose once per round. After your answer, see the correct connection and explanation, then move on.
Connections uses 20 rounds in Play Anytime and 3 rounds when selected for the Daily. “Try first” lets you practise three rounds with different clues. Practice does not add points or change your streak.
Connections asks you to find a common link among a group of clues. Avoid committing because a choice fits just one familiar word. Read the whole group, propose a connection, then test it against every item. The strongest answer explains the entire set without special exceptions.
Take 4, 9, 16 and 25. They are all perfect squares: 2², 3², 4² and 5². “Even numbers” fails for 9 and 25, while “multiples of three” fails for 4, 16 and 25. Checking a candidate against all four clues is how you distinguish a complete relationship from a partial match.
Each round gives you one answer, so check every clue before choosing. An incorrect answer earns zero points and reveals the connection. Play Anytime contains twenty rounds; the Daily format contains three. A clue should help establish the connection without stating the answer outright. If you notice one that does, report the clue set through Suggestions.
