The New York Times will now offer daily hints and a difficulty rating for each day’s Connections puzzle through a new daily article series called Connections Companion.

The New York Times will now offer daily hints for Connections, its delightful yet sometimes frustrating daily word game. In Connections, you’re tasked with finding four sets of associations between 16 words. Each “solution” groups four words together, but the groupings can be tough to figure out. If you’re stuck, the new Connections Companion offers a difficulty rating and hints you can use to get help without spoiling the entire puzzle. Here’s how the hints work.

The Connections Companion has a list of those four colors represented by emoji squares, and you can click the color to see one of the words included in that grouping for that day. These hints seem really useful; more than once, I’ve stared blankly at a Connections board without any idea of how the words might match up with one another, so using a hint could point me in the right direction to actually solve the day’s puzzle.
