This was a difficult Connections to end the year with for anyone playing outside the US.
Fortunately, my love of Rocky (I’m a sucker for slow-motion training scenes) saw me home with ASSOCIATED WITH PHILADELPHIA. I’ve also got a restaurant near me called Fat Phill’s, whose specialty is a Philly Cheese – so I am well aware of the legendary sandwich.
More universal was the PLACES WHERE THINGS DISAPPEAR group. There are two mysteries of the modern family household: where does the remote control go and why have I got so many odd socks? The answers to both lay among this quartet.

BLUE: PARTS OF A FLIGHT CLIMB, TAKEOFF, TAXI, TOUCHDOWN
PURPLE: BIKE ACCESSORIES BASKET, BELL, RACK, REFLECTOR
What is NYT Connections?
NYT Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four items that share something in common, and each group has a different difficulty level: green is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite tough and purple usually very difficult.
On the plus side, you don't technically need to solve the final one, as you'll be able to answer that one by a process of elimination. What's more, you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing room.
It's a little more involved than something like Wordle, however, and there are plenty of opportunities for the game to trip you up with tricks. For instance, watch out for homophones and other word games that could disguise the answers.
It's playable for free via the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
