To conquer today’s Connections puzzle, you’ll want to soak up as many tips and tricks as possible. At first glance, today’s puzzle might seem quirky, with many boxes filled with words that appear nonsensical.

If you’re looking for another challenge after this, consider checking out the daily Mini Crossword from the New York Times. While it’s similar to the typical crosswords found in newspapers, it’s smaller and easier to handle at 5×5 in size. This version offers an interesting mix of cultural clues, making it a fun way to unwind during a break or while traveling, allowing you to enjoy puzzle-solving without it taking too much time.
In today’s puzzle, much of the solution will come from identifying which words fit together and discovering how certain small, seemingly random words connect. There are some overlaps, and you might encounter words that could belong to categories not present in this puzzle. Keep these in mind, as similar words often reappear in different puzzles.
