My boys introduced me to it a few days ago and itβs pretty fun. They give you a list of 16 words and you have to select 4 that would make a category. Todayβs was pretty straightforward, but they can definitely be tricky. www.nytimes.com/games/connections

Yes! Every day it's the daily crossword puzzle, then Wordle, then Spelling Bee, then Connections!

Yes, I've been playing it. A couple of them have stumped me - the one with names of Rappers. And a couple of days ago with names of pirates. They are clever in using words that can have multiple references.

So...yesterday's puzzle, which was my first time playing it, was easy. Today's not so much. haha. Yesterday I got all four groups without any errors, and today it took me quite a few tries.

It's a NYT daily puzzle game. Spelling Bee Not sure if it requires a subscription or not - my dh and I do it together every morning.

I don't play it every day like Spelling Bee or Wordle but I do like it. They also added Letter Boxed to my app which I REALLY enjoy. I never get close to Sam's solutions though.

I noticed they added that too and I don't love it - I'll have to try it again. I do like that they added Tiles - very zen.

I noticed they added that too and I don't love it - I'll have to try it again. I do like that they added Tiles - very zen. It took me three days to figure out that I didn't have to use 3 letter words to solve the puzzle. One day I was absolutely bewildered because there was no 3 word letter combination that day which could end in "H."

I like Connections, but Spelling Bee is my most recent obsession. When Iβve found enough words and it tells me I am a genius, I actually believe it for a second or two. πππ
