The yellow hint was condiment for lettuce and toppings. The green hint was a person who accompanies someone else, as in a wedding. The blue hint was you won't find these everywhere. The purple hint was where players dunk the ball.
Those clues split the board into a food group, a people group, a rarity group and a basketball group. The structure gives solvers a practical route through the board before they start burning guesses.
No. 1,101 answers
The creamy salad dressings theme was blue cheese, Caesar, Green Goddess and ranch. The attendants theme was court, entourage, retinue and suite. The rare things, idiomatically theme was black swan, blue moon, perfect storm and unicorn.
The purple group was what “hoops” might refer to. That is the sort of wording that can trip up players who see the sport first and the category second.
Times Games Bot
The Times has a Connections Bot, like the one for Wordle. Registered Times Games users can follow their progress, including puzzles completed, win rate, perfect scores and win streaks.
The unresolved piece is whether a player wants the hints only or the full board before opening the game. For anyone trying to protect a streak, the full answer set changes the session from solving to checking work.
