The answers to today's Connections, game #905, are…
- YELLOW: APPROXIMATE BALLPARK, BROAD, GENERAL, ROUGH
- GREEN: MILD OATHS FRICK, FUDGE, SHOOT, SUGAR
- BLUE: MLB PLAYER ANGEL, MET, RAY, ROYAL
- PURPLE: FAMILY MEMBER NICKNAME PLUS A LETTER BROW, DADA, MOMA, SISI
- My rating: Hard
- My score: 1 mistake
I only know the name of one baseball player and they retired in 2001, so I’m really pleased I managed to see the purple group after I got down to the final eight tiles.
Before that, I managed to make a mistake by thinking that MOMA and MET belonged in a group of New York institutions – so I added DADA and ROYAL without having any idea what they could be.
Fortunately, I moved on pretty quickly and saw APPROXIMATE and the brilliant collection of MILD OATHS – although surely “fiddlesticks” would have been a better choice than FRICK.

What is NYT Connections?
NYT Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four items that share something in common, and each group has a different difficulty level: green is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite tough and purple usually very difficult.
On the plus side, you don't technically need to solve the final one, as you'll be able to answer that one by a process of elimination. What's more, you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing room.
It's a little more involved than something like Wordle, however, and there are plenty of opportunities for the game to trip you up with tricks. For instance, watch out for homophones and other word games that could disguise the answers.
It's playable for free via the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
