NYT TODAY Connections (Game # 773) – Answers
The responses to today’s connections, the game # 773, are…
- Yellow: figures inducing fear Bogeyman, Bugbear, Hobgoblin, Phantom
- Green: types of steaks Chateaubriand, Flaton, Porterhouse, Tomahawk
- Blue: linked to the purchase of a house Evaluation, sequestration, insurance, mortgage
- Violet: animals ending with animals Geoduck, Seahorse, Titmouse, Wombat
- My note: Hard
- My score: 2 errors
I made my two mistakes today by trying to bring together characters inducing the formidable. I thought it had something to do with mythical creatures, also Geoduck, then Titmouse instead of Bugbear – which, with hindsight, seemed a little ridiculous.
Now, thanks to Google, I know that a geoduck is a kind of clam rather than a mythical beast, and part of the excellent animal ending with a group of animals. Congratulations to all those who spotted this one.
The types of steak were the first thing I thought when I saw the start of the game, but I needed the options to reduce before I could get others. Chateaubriand – which is a thick cup of beef net – is a new word for me.

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.
