Find the solutions from past puzzles on our NYT Connections Answers Archive.

How to Play NYT Connections

To play Connections, you will need to look for four words that have something in common. Then, you’ll tap/click to select those four words and select “submit” to see if your guess is correct. You can only make up to four mistakes. Each day, there are four groups to discover with the first group being the easiest and the last group being the trickiest.

When you’re attempting to solve the puzzle of the day, it’s a good idea to first skim through all of the available words and see if any two or three jump out at you as having something in common. Then, you can go back and see if you can find the third and fourth word that would have the same thing in common.

There is one puzzle per day, and it appears to reset at midnight local time! After you’ve completed the day’s puzzle, you can view your results and there will be a countdown to when you can play the next puzzle.

We hope our NYT Connections January 4 2025 Answer Guide helped you out on today’s puzzle! Check out more of our NYT Connections coverage.
