NEW YORK, NY — The New York Times released its daily Connections game hints and answers for July 4, providing players with clues to improve their gameplay. Each day, the puzzle goes live at midnight, challenging players to group 16 words into four sets of four.
For the holiday weekend, players can expect a fun, thematic game that suits the festive atmosphere. Kris Holt, a contributor to Forbes, provided insights and hints for today’s game to assist avid players in maintaining their winning streaks.
“Is there anything better than a public holiday falling on a Friday or Monday? A three-day weekend is pretty swell, especially for those in the U.S.,” said Holt. The game invites players to find connections among words, often leading to intriguing solutions that encourage creative thinking.
