I was crouched down in fear that I wasn't going to get this one.

Btw there’s a new puzzle by the New York Times called Connections. You’re given 16 words and you need to sort them out in groups of four. Each group is connected in some way- 4 animals, baseball terminology, etc. There’s a bit of wordplay and trivia needed to solve.

For me it tickles the same itch as Wordle does and takes about the same amount of time.

Your fear is my reality. I was cackling by the end after my sheer dumb luck on Guess #2.

Connections

It's pretty good. I wish the connections were a little more obtuse.

The other new one, Digits, is pretty good too if you like math puzzles. It let me drop another one of my daily puzzles that was just a simpler version.

I have seen some people criticizing the NYT for just making games based on British game shows (Connections is the last round of Only Connect and Digits is an expanded version of the numbers game from Countdown) but these types of games have existed long before they were turned into game shows.

The real question is, when will we finally get Numberwang?

I had 3 possible words for the last guess. I luckily picked the correct one. In retrospect I should have guessed something with L in it earlier to rule out a lot of my wrong guesses.
