Connections Help, Hints & Clues for Today, January 15

Today’s edition of “NYT Connections“, published by the New York Times on January 15, is now accessible for solvers. Ever since its launch in June 2023, this word game has swiftly climbed the ranks as one of the Times’ most enjoyed puzzles. Participants receive a 16-word grid and are tasked with sorting them into four distinct groups, each containing four words. These groups represent various themes – ranging from words that sound alike to those that read the same forward and backward, to words ending in ‘-ing.’ The themes themselves are designated by colors, reflecting their respective degrees of difficulty. Yellow denotes the easiest group, while Purple indicates the most challenging. Green and Blue fall between these two extremes.

Here are the hints, clues, and answers for today, January 15’s NYT Connections.

Today’s game proved tricky due to a higher-than-normal overlap in word meanings. Initially, we combined MECHANISM, TOOL, and VEHICLE with ROBOT, thinking they all shared an artificial theme, but it turned out that wasn’t the case. Similarly, we mistakenly grouped LIGHT, LOW, and SHORT with PEANUT, only to discover our error. However, once we cracked the Green category, the rest of the puzzles seemed to solve themselves effortlessly.
