NYT Connections today (game #1015) - the answers

The answers to today's Connections, game #1015, are…

GREEN: PICTURE TAKEN FROM A FILM FRAME, IMAGE, SHOT, STILL

BLUE: COMPONENTS OF A WEIGHTLIFTING SETUP BAR, BENCH, RACK, WEIGHTS

I didn’t see the purple group today. Kudos if you did.

Maybe I was blind to it because CHANNEL surfing is no longer a part of the dominant COUCH Potato mindset. The zapper of the '00s is the scroller of the '20s and today instead of whizzing through stations in search of instant gratification we’ll get our dopamine hits from on-demand video clips.

My mistake came with COMPONENTS OF A WEIGHTLIFTING SETUP. I was on the right track, but I chose FRAME instead of RACK — which possibly tells you how infrequently I go to the gym (I’m too busy scrolling).

Yesterday's NYT Connections answers (Saturday, March 21, game #1014)

PURPLE: 20TH CENTURY AMERICAN POETS BISHOP, FROST, POUND, RICH

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.

Marc is Tech Radar’s Global Editor in Chief, the latest in a long line of senior editorial roles he’s held in a career that started the week that Google launched (nice of them to mark the occasion). Prior to joining TR, he was UK Editor in Chief on Tom’s Guide, where he oversaw all gaming, streaming, audio, TV, entertainment, how-to and cameras coverage. He's also a former editor of the tech website Stuff and spent five years at the music magazine NME, where his duties mainly involved spoiling other people’s fun. He’s based in London, and has tested and written about phones, tablets, wearables, streaming boxes, smart home devices, Bluetooth speakers, headphones, games, TVs, cameras and pretty much every other type of gadget you can think of. An avid photographer, Marc likes nothing better than taking pictures of very small things (bugs, his daughters) or very big things (distant galaxies). He also enjoys live music, gaming, cycling, and beating Wordle (he authors the daily Wordle today page).
