Connections is the one of the most popular New York Times word games that’s captured the public’s attention. The game is all about finding the “common threads between words.” And just like Wordle, Connections resets after midnight and each new set of words gets trickier and trickier—so we’ve served up some hints and tips to get you over the hurdle.
If you just want to be told today’s puzzle, you can jump to the end of this article for today’s Connections solution. But if you’d rather solve it yourself, keep reading for some clues, tips, and strategies to assist you.
The NYT‘s latest daily word game has become a social media hit. The Times credits associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu with helping to create the new word game and bringing it to the publications’ Games section. Connections can be played on both web browsers and mobile devices and require players to group four words that share something in common.
Each puzzle features 16 words and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets could comprise of anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there’s only one correct answer.
If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake—players get up to four mistakes until the game ends.
Players can also rearrange and shuffle the board to make spotting connections easier. Additionally, each group is color-coded with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, you can share the results with your friends on social media.

Hey, everyone! I hope you’re having an excellent weekend!
One of my very favorite things I saw (and wrote about) last week was a limited-edition wrist watch based on the classic game Asteroids. Y’know, that Atari one from the ’70s.
It looks very cool, if a little chaotic. The controllable ship from the game that pew-pews at asteroids is the second hand, while two UFOs denote the hours and minutes. Some asteroids add to the visual noise, though.
I’m not huge on video game memorabilia, but I have picked up a few pieces over the last coupe of years to brighten up my place (I utterly adore my elephant Mario plush and Sayonara Wild Hearts print). But yeah, I had to snap up this watch. I’m looking forward to being the kind of dork who wears both that and an Apple Watch at the same time.
Before we begin, I’ve set up a discussion group for Connections and this column on Discord. You can chat about each game (and other topics) with me and other folks. I’m always interested to find out how other people approach the game, so join us! It’s fun.
It’s also the best way to give me any feedback about the column, especially on the rare(!) occasions that I mess something up.
Today’s NYTConnections hints and answers for Sunday, February 2, are coming right up.
How To Play Connections
Connections is a free, popular New York Times daily word game. You get a new puzzle at midnight every day. You can play on the NYT website or Games app.
You’re presented with a grid of 16 words. Your task is to arrange them into four groups of four by figuring out the links between them. The groups could be things like items you can click, names for research study participants or words preceded by a body part.
There’s only one solution for each puzzle, and you’ll need to be careful when it comes to words that might fit into more than one category. You can shuffle the words to perhaps help you see links between them.
Each group is color coded. The yellow group is usually the easiest to figure out, blue and green fall in the middle, and the purple group is usually the most difficult one. The purple group often involves wordplay.
Select four words you think go together and press Submit. If you make a guess and you’re incorrect, you’ll lose a life. If you’re close to having a correct group, you might see a message telling you that you’re one word away from getting it right, but you’ll still need to figure out which one to swap.
If you make four mistakes, it’s game over. Let’s make sure that doesn’t happen with the help of some hints, and, if you’re really struggling, today’s Connections answers. As with Wordle and other similar games, it’s easy to share results with your friends on social media and group chats.
If you have an NYT All Access or Games subscription, you can access the publication’s Connections archive. This includes every previous game of Connections, so you can go back and play any of those that you have missed.
Aside from the first 60 games or so, you should be able to find my hints for each grid via Google if you need them! Just click here and add the date of the game for which you need clues or the answers to the search query.
What Are Today’s Connections Hints?
Scroll slowly! Just after the hints for each of today’s Connections groups, I’ll reveal what the groups are without immediately telling you which words go into them.
Today’s 16 words are…
SWISS
SWALLOW
SORRY
STREET
MUNSTER
MART
BLUE
HAWK
DUCK
DOWN
POP
PARTRIDGE
GRIFFIN
GROUSE
PICKLES
HANGDOG
And the hints for today’s Connections groups are:
Yellow group — feeling low
Green group — they fly and do stuff
Blue group — familiarly funny
Purple group — linked by a single letter
What Are Today’s Connections Groups?
Need some extra help?
Be warned: we’re starting to get into spoiler territory.
Today’s Connections groups are…
Yellow group — dejected
Green group — birds that are verbs
Blue group — TV comedy families
Purple group — words after “K”
What Are Today’s Connections Answers?
Spoiler alert! Don’t scroll any further down the page until you’re ready to find out today’s Connections answers.
This is your final warning!
Today’s Connections answers are…
Yellow group — dejected (BLUE, DOWN, HANGDOG, SORRY)
Green group — birds that are verbs (DUCK, GROUSE, HAWK, SWALLOW)
Blue group — TV comedy families (GRIFFIN, MUNSTER, PARTRIDGE, PICKLES)
Purple group — words after “K” (MART, POP, STREET, SWISS)
A second perfect game in a row extends my overall streak to 20 wins. Here’s how I fared:
My first instinct was that MUNSTER, GRIFFIN and PARTRIDGE would be TV families. The only one that made sense to me with those was PICKLES, so I took a stab and hey, I was right!
They relate to Family Guy (GRIFFIN), The Munsters (MUNSTER), The Partridge Family (PARTRIDGE) and Rugrats (PICKLES). I was happy about getting that, since I haven’t ever watched two of those shows.
The four remaining birds were up next, though I didn’t clock that they were all verbs too. Fun little wrinkle there.
The yellows then jumped out at me, thanks to DOWN and HANGDOG. I submitted the blues first, but I didn’t deduce that connection first.
KMART is a department store chain that only has five physical stores left: three in the U.S. Virgin Islands, one in Guam and a smaller one in Miami. K-POP means “Korean popular music.” K STREET (which I’d never heard of) is a street known for political lobbying in Washington, D.C. as well as the name of an HBO show from Steven Soderbergh about said activity. As for K-SWISS, that’s a brand of athletic shoes.
That’s all there is to it for today’s Connections clues and answers. Be sure to check my blog tomorrow for hints and the solution for Monday’s game if you need them.
P.S. I’m wrapping up my week of dance music recommendations with another French house track. I love the expansiveness of Justice’s sound. My favorite track of theirs is probably “DVNO,” so I’m going with that. It is, as the youths say, a banger:
Have a great day! Stay hydrated! Call someone you love!
If you’re so inclined, please do follow my blog for more coverage of Connections and other word games and even some video game news, insights and analysis. It helps me out a lot! Also, follow me on Bluesky! It’s fun there.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (KATU) — Senator Ron Wyden, D-Ore., has called for an explanation from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent following reports that individuals linked to Elon Musk attempted to gain access to a highly sensitive Treasury Department payment system. The system, which is managed by non-political staff, handles trillions of dollars annually, including Social Security and Medicare benefits, tax credits, and payments to government contractors, some of which compete with Musk-owned companies.
“To put it bluntly, these payment systems simply cannot fail, and any politically-motivated meddling in them risks severe damage to our country and the economy,” Wyden wrote in a letter to Bessent. “I am deeply concerned that following the federal grant and loan freeze earlier this week, these officials associated with Musk may have intended to access these payment systems to illegally withhold payments to any number of programs.”
Wyden expressed further concern about Musk’s business ties to China, stating, “The press has previously reported that Musk was denied a high-level clearance to access the government’s most sensitive secrets. I am concerned that Musk’s enormous business operation in China…endangers U.S. cybersecurity and creates conflicts of interest that make his access to these systems a national security risk.”
Wyden’s letter posed several questions to the Treasury Department, including whether officials linked to Musk or DOGE have requested or been granted access to the Bureau of the Fiscal Service’s payment systems, and if so, under what legal authority and for what purpose. The senator also inquired about any vetting processes conducted by the Treasury Department regarding potential conflicts of interest due to Musk’s business operations in China.
Senator Ron Wyden, the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, has demanded answers from Tesla CEO Elon Musk regarding reports that Tesla personnel were seeking access to the U.S. Treasury Department’s system for processing tax credits.
Wyden expressed concerns over potential misuse of taxpayer funds and called for transparency in the matter. He requested a detailed explanation from Musk on the reasons for Tesla employees seeking access to the Treasury system and how the company intended to use the information obtained.
The senator emphasized the need for oversight and accountability in ensuring that federal resources are not being exploited for private gain. He warned against any attempts to manipulate the system for personal or corporate benefit.
Wyden’s inquiry comes amidst ongoing scrutiny of Musk and Tesla’s financial dealings, including allegations of tax evasion and other improprieties. The senator has vowed to hold those responsible accountable and ensure that taxpayer dollars are used responsibly and ethically.

Are you a fan of The New York Times’ Connections puzzle? Looking for some hints and answers to help solve puzzle #601? Look no further! Here are some tips to help you crack the code and complete this challenging puzzle.
Hints:
1. Look for common themes or connections between the given words or phrases.
2. Pay attention to the number of letters in each word or phrase.
3. Try to think outside the box and consider alternative interpretations of the clues.
I’m glad that January is behind us. Partly because I almost never spell “January” correctly on the first attempt (I genuinely got it wrong both times in this paragraph). I definitely spell February correctly every time though. Absolutely. Just like I do with Microsfot.
Meanwhile, I’m trying to be more intentional about using my phone in a healthier way. For instance, I have 15-minute daily time limits on both the Instagram and YouTube apps, and rarely stray beyond those.
I also have a feature enabled that detects when my phone is too close to my face to minimize eye strain. So I need to hold it at arm’s length to use it. I’m short-sighted and don’t have my glasses on when I’m falling asleep or just waking up. This setting deters me from using my phone at the very beginning and end of my day since I can’t see the screen very well. It might be helpful for you too!
Before we begin, I’ve set up a discussion group for Connections and this column on Discord. You can chat about each game (and other topics) with me and other folks. I’m always interested to find out how other people approach the game, so join us! It’s fun.
It’s also the best way to give me any feedback about the column, especially on the rare(!) occasions that I mess something up.

What Are Today’s Connections Hints?
Scroll slowly! Just after the hints for each of today’s Connections groups, I’ll reveal what the groups are without immediately telling you which words go into them.
Today’s 16 words are…
MATCH
SHADE
CHALLENGE
CLUE
CONTEST
SUSPECT
CHORD
TONE
DEAL
HUE
DETECTIVE
QUESTION
POSE
ALIBI
DISPUTE
TINGE
And the hints for today’s Connections groups are:
Yellow group — paint swatches have several of these
Green group — elements of a typical Agatha Christie novel
Blue group — hey now! About that…
Purple group — in some cases, this involves pressing one object against another and moving it quickly
What Are Today’s Connections Groups?

Be warned: we’re starting to get into spoiler territory.

Purple group — strike a ____

Spoiler alert! Don’t scroll any further down the page until you’re ready to find out today’s Connections answers.
This is your final warning!
Today’s Connections answers are…
Yellow group — tint (HUE, SHADE, TINGE, TONE)
Green group — components of a mystery (ALIBI, CLUE, DETECTIVE, SUSPECT)
Blue group — take issue with (CHALLENGE, CONTEST, DISPUTE, QUESTION)
Purple group — strike a ____ (CHORD, DEAL, MATCH, POSE)
A perfect game brings my overall streak up to 19 wins. Here’s how I fared:
As I was double checking the list of words after writing them out, I realized that CONTEST might have more to do with challenging something, rather than having something to do with a competition. That led me into the blues.
The greens were no problem at all, thanks to ALIBI and DETECTIVE and the yellows were a cinch as well. That left the purples for the win. I didn’t bother figuring out the connection there because it’s the weekend and my brain has been overworked, friends (I probably should have gotten it, though).
Another relatively straightforward game there. I’ve got a niggling feeling that the NYT is going to wait until, like, a random Tuesday before tossing out the next truly wild game. But for now, let’s all keep our streaks rolling along smoothly.
That’s all there is to it for today’s Connections clues and answers. Be sure to check my blog tomorrow for hints and the solution for Sunday’s game if you need them.
P.S. I’ll do a couple more dance/house song recommendations today and tomorrow before getting back to my regularly scheduled programming.
My favorite flavor of house music, by far, is French house. There must be something in l’eau that makes musicians in that country so damn good at it. Kavinsky skews a little more toward the synthwave side of things (another genre I really enjoy). Still, his stuff is pretty great.
My favorite song of his is probably “ProtoVision.” The vibe is so painfully ’80s, but it absolutely hits the spot:
Have a great day! Stay hydrated! Call someone you love!
If you’re so inclined, please do follow my blog for more coverage of Connections and other word games and even some video game news, insights and analysis. It helps me out a lot! Also, follow me on Bluesky! It’s fun there.

“Hunt and peck”
Hi Strands fans. Today’s puzzle baffled me at first, but it really shouldn’t have. What hunts and pecks? Birds of prey, of course.
So I regret using a clue, because as soon as I had it was obvious. The clue revealed HAWK, and I quickly spotted VULTURE in the top left and FALCON diagonally underlining it a space apart.
That space was filled easily with the spangram of RAPTORS, which was a bit of a relief as I was previously looking for a way to expand “prey” into something longer without luck.
I found KESTREL along the left-hand side next, followed by CONDOR to its right. I then bagged EAGLE in the top-left which meant only OSPREY (the word that had me looking for “prey” as part of the spangram earlier) remained to complete the puzzle.
