Drumroll, please... 🟨 Prick: Jab, pierce, poke, stick 🟩 Radio lingo: Copy, negative, over, roger 🟦 Old Testament books: Daniel, Job, Judges, Numbers 🟪 Words pronounced "Sh" without an "Sh": Sean, Siobahn, sugar, sure I don't know why but the sub-2 rated puzzles I never guess which category is which color correctly. They are all yellow at a certain point. And yet, I went down the line. Which is largely due to how I play where I let categories come to me. I don't really try to specify purple first. I play this game with vibes, which probably isn't how you're supposed to do it. Poke and jab stuck out to me first, and then we picked up pierce and jab. Copy, negative and over shifted almost on top of each other, so I looked around for another radio term and found roger. If you don't follow Christianity or Judaism, the blue category might be a little harder with books from the first testament. These were Daniel, Job, Judges and Numbers. And we wrapped it up with words that have an "sh" sound when pronounced not when spelled: Sean, Siobahn, sugar and sure. Yesterday's Connections answers 🟨 Aloof: Beat, Pound, Pulse, Thump 🟩 Landforms: Cape, Crater, Gorge, Ridge 🟦 Picture hanging needs: Hammer, Hanger, Level, Nail 🟪 Foot ___: Ball, Hills, Locker, Print Reading this in a later time zone? Here are the Connections answers for game #666, which had a difficulty rating of 3.8 out of 5, according to the Connections Companion. I've been fighting off a headache all day, so it was easy to spot today's yellow category with Beat, Pound, Pulse, and Thump. I grew up near the Chesapeake Bay, so when I saw Cape, I immediately started thinking of peninsulas. I looked around to see what other geographical terms I could find, and scored the rest of the green category with Gorge, Crater, and Ridge. I started rounding up all the tool-related terms I could find and ended up stumbling on the blue category with Hammer, Hanger, Level, and Nail. That left only purple with Ball, Hills, Locker, and Print. See more Gaming News Scott Younker Social Links Navigation West Coast Reporter Scott Younker is the West Coast Reporter at Tom’s Guide.
