Each day’s game of NYT Connections goes live at midnight local time. Before today’s NYT Connections hints, here’s what you missed on Monday:There weren’t tons of surprises for me in my Apple Music Replay, a recap of what I’ve listened to via the streaming service in 2025.

Electric Callboy, Babymetal, Editors, Toe and Foo Fighters were my top artists. But there were a few things in the Replay playlist, which shows the top 100 songs I’ve listened to this year, that made me raise my eyebrow. Perhaps the most shocking/galling thing to me was that there was a Puddle of Mudd song in my top 50. I have no earthly idea how that happened. I think I listened to one of that band’s songs intentionally one time this year. And yet it’s in the top 100. I’m going to need to play everything below that on the list a few times to knock it out of the top 100. I can’t live with this hanging over me.games and all kinds of other stuff. It’s a lovely, welcoming group of folks. I like to call it our cozy little corner of the internet. You’re more than welcome to join us. Don’t be shy!presents you with a grid of 16 words . The aim is to arrange them into four groups of four. You don’t know how they hit together or what the category for each group is: that’s what you have to figure out. There’s only one correct solution and there are often red herrings. You can guess incorrectly three times. A fourth wrong guess, and it’s game over. Each group is color coded. The yellow group is usually the easiest to deduce, followed by blue, green and purple. Often, the yellow and green groups have synonyms, the blues have cultural references and the purples have some kind of wordplay involved. But this is not a hard and fast rule. Be ready for curveballs – part of the fun ofand similar games, it’s easy to share results with your friends using an emoji-based grid. The game tracks your progress too. Many players take pride in having long win streaks or getting a reverse rainbow – correctly guessing the purple, blue, green and yellow groups in that order with no mistakes. That adds an extra little challenge.I’ll first give you a list of today’s words, then a hint for each category. After that, I’ll reveal one word that goes into each group. Then I’ll tell you the category names, followed by the full answers.🟦 Blue group — linked by something that Roy G. Biv might find bright and vivid, especially when there are two and the full spectrum is visiblespoiler territory.🟩 Green group — striped animals 🟪 Purple group — beginning with number homophones My first thoughts were that there might be a group of things associated with rainbows and one with cereal mascots . CLOWNFISH brings to mind, of course, but since we’ve had a few groups related to Pixar and animated movies lately, I didn’t think that would be the reference. I then realized that PRIDE was the other rainbow word, and that took care of the blues. The hint referenced the Double Rainbow meme and ROYGBIV – red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet – or the order of colors in a rainbow. At that point I figured the cereal mascots were out of play. Animals with stripes then made sense for the greens. From there, the yellows were clear enough. The "fore" part of forehead jumped out at me, so I was able to figure out the purple connection and submit those before the yellows. I struggled to think up a good hint for the purples, but after I realized that the numbers descended once the relevant words were in alphabetical order, I thought I had something. I hope that made sense! Fun one today, I thought. Some nice interplay between the red herrings and the actual groups. My streak is now at 283 wins in a row.

Having DOROTHY GALE on the grid means I need to go with a version of the character's signature song, "Over the Rainbow." Eva Cassidy's take might be my favorite:hints and help with other word games, and even some video game news, insights and analysis. It helps me out a lot!
