NYT TODAY connections (game # 654) – Answers

The answers to today’s connections, the game # 654, are…
- Yellow: parts of a table setting Fork, glass, towel, plate
- Green: increased, with “up” Steering wheel, pink, shooting, push
- Blue: types of digital storage Map, cloud, disc, reader
- Purple: Plus Letter volume units BOUNCE, GALION, PINOT, Quartz
- My note: Moderate
- My score: 1 error
At the start, I thought there was a silent category of letters today and put Quartz, which, on reflection, makes no sense, with theft, Pinot, Rose.
Then I saw types of digital storage.
Cloud storage once seemed incredibly difficult to explain – my photos are kept where? In a cloud? Now it seems strange that we have stored things on a card once.
Then, I was increased with “UP” and I was completely blind to more letter units – a group of classic connections that rewards people who can identify models in words and confuse people like me who can look at the word rebounds a whole life without considering that it could also be an ounce with a B. Added B.

What is NYT connections?
Nyt Connections is one of the many increasingly popular puns produced by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four elements that share something in common, and each group has a different level of difficulty: green is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite hard and generally very difficult.
On the positive side, you do not technically need to resolve the last, because you can respond to it by an elimination process. In addition, you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little breathing margin.
However, it is a little more involved than something like Wordle, and there are a lot of opportunities so that the game makes you trip with towers. For example, pay attention to homophones and other word games that could disguise the answers.
It is playable for free via the NYT games site on the desktop or mobile.
