If you are new to Connections, the rules of the game are simple. Players must separate 16 words into four categories based on common characteristics. These categories are color-coded in yellow, green, blue and purple, with yellow being the easiest category and purple the hardest. The green and blue categories are of medium difficulty.

The NYT Connections for today, February 6, can now be solved. One of the most popular features published in The New York Times, Connections has a 16-word grid that the players must correctly assemble in four groups of four.
