It won't be wrong to say that the tricky puzzle has created a fan base of its own on social media. Through its well-designed interface, Connections encourages people to practice their skills and expand their vocabulary. People can play Connections on both web browsers and mobile devices. It requires them to group four words, which share something in common. All you are required to do is mention the 16 words into groups of four, regardless of whether they are connected or not. In this game, there are 16 words in each puzzle and eight groupings of words split into four categories. These sets of words could comprise anything, ranging from book titles to country names. Notably, players are required to find the only correct answer. Once you get all four words in a set correct, then these words get removed from the board. But for wrong guesses, it is counted as a mistake. Until the game ends, players can make only four mistakes. Also, there is the option of rearranging and shuffling the board, making it easier to spot connections. Each of the groups is colour-coded, with yellow being the easiest to crack, followed by green, blue, and purple.
