NYT TODAY Connections (Game # 733) – Answers
The answers to today’s connections, the game # 733, are…
- Yellow: Perspective Angle, folded, objective, point of view
- Green: seen in an ice cream store Cone, cup, small spoon, scoop
- Blue: Hit Songs of 1998 Closing time, iris, a week, too close
- Violet: hot ___ Dog, potato, rod, water bottle
- My note: Moderate
- My score: Perfect
I questioned Little Spoon as something seen in an ice cream store, but I then remembered that they actually kept long spoons.
They are there for the consumption of ice cream sundaes, where long small spoons are necessary to get to the bottom of the glass. In some establishments, they are used to provide samples to customers who cannot decide if they want spoons with salty caramel or raspberry.
After obtaining the first two groups fairly quickly, I had a hard time seeing connections between the remaining eight words, before, after many troubles, determine that the connection was hot.
I am lucky to have the Violet group, because I have not recognized any of the successful songs of 1998. It is probably because I was too busy in a French melancholy mist listening Moon Safari Album 20 million times for the entire 1998 to pay attention to sowing (closing time) or goro goo dolls (IRIS).
How did you do today? Let me know in the comments below.

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.
