NYT Connections Hints Puzzle Solution Unveiled
The puzzle's solution relies on finding the common thread between each category's words, whether it's the idea of providing information, making an impact, or being related to a particular concept or theme, and the game's challenging nature is sure to appeal to fans of word games and puzzles.
The New York Times' Connections puzzle #757, released on July 7, 2025, presents a challenging quartet-based game, where players must sort 16 words into four categories, each with a unique thematic connection, with the categories including Informant, Big impression, Basketball moves, and Top ____.
The Informant category features words like Canary, leak, rat, and source, all of which are related to providing information, often in a secretive or illicit manner. In contrast, the Big impression category includes words like Footprint, impact, mark, and splash, which are all related to making a significant impression or leaving a lasting effect.
The Basketball moves category is more straightforward, with words like Block, dribble, pass, and shoot, all of which are common moves in the sport of basketball. The Top ____ category, however, is more cryptic, with words like Banana, dog, hat, and secret, which may seem unrelated at first glance, but can be connected through their relationship to the word "top", as in top banana, top dog, top hat, and top secret.
The Connections game, launched in 2023, has become a popular puzzle among word game enthusiasts, with its unique challenge of finding thematic connections between seemingly unrelated words. With its color-coded categories and increasing difficulty levels, the game provides a fun and engaging way to test one's vocabulary and problem-solving skills.
