Connections, a New York Times game that is all about finding the common threads between words.
This is a completed game. To start, each puzzle features 16 words and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets comprise anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer. If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake—players get up to four mistakes until the game ends.
The bottom row - words spelled with an upside down calculator - I had to try it. I dug through a drawer and found an old school calculator and here you go! "HELLO" turned to "HELL" because when you're doing this you have to work backward. The 0 started the number and then disappeared after punching in the other numbers.
Go on...get that calculator out...you know you want to try it!
Fun ways to keep the mind active.
ReplyDeleteI try to play this puzzle every day but I must have missed this one. I think I would have had to get the first three in order to get the last one.
