Rock Paper Shotgun published its guide for Connections #1066 on Wednesday, 13th May, offering players a fresh set of hints and answers for puzzle game. The guide is a previous-day rundown, and anyone looking for today's help is directed to check the Connections hint for Thursday 14th May.
Connections is one of ' most popular and challenging daily puzzle games. The goal is simple to state and often harder to solve: sort 16 words into four groups of four that share a common theme. Players get four mistakes before the game ends and the answer is revealed automatically, with each group color-coded by difficulty from Yellow, the easiest, through Green and Blue, to Purple, the hardest.
For Wednesday's puzzle, the guide says the sets included donut- and sandwich-themed groups, and the writer said the purple group was not hard to figure out. That kind of structure is why the game's hint guides have become part of the daily routine for many readers: they move from lighter clues to the final answers without giving the whole board away at once.
The catch is that the source text does not include the actual words, the full answer list, or the complete set of hints for #1066. What it does show is how tightly the format is built around the daily cycle of the game, with one day's guide closing out Wednesday and the next day's hint waiting on Thursday 14th May.
