I won't lie this took me longer than it should have. I couldn't see one of them for ages and that was severely limiting me.

I got the spoiler one when it was down to that one and the other, still didn’t know the last one when it was the only one left

I got that one almost immediately for some reason even though

Spoiler

I am not an Apple user.

The last one I got because it was all that was left.

Got the first two quickly then a little slower for the next two.

I had trouble with this one

[BigDaddy]

Connections
Puzzle #33




This one gave me trouble as well.

Spoiler

I didn't know junk was a kind of boat, and I couldn't figure out a connection with the four names. I didn't see any other names, so I just went with it. I figured sub was either sandwich or boat (since I didn't know junk was a boat), but I didn't see any other definite sandwiches. I wasn't 100% confident most of the way but got lucky.

Pretty much the same issue for me

boats threw me off too, so I went to a different tactic and it fell into place.

@shortkut this is the original thread, another one got started in chit chat it looks like

I've just started playing this. It's a game right up my alley - I'm awesome with word games (usually) and stringing things together...

But, I'm pretty bad at it so far. I think I have two main problems.

1. Too many topics where I'm flat out ignorant. Heaps of common topics too.
2. I can connect anything in my brain.

Lovely game though.

biggest tip I can give: there is almost always one that immediately jumps out at me. 2 words that only have one significant connection, get that first one and most of the rest usually falls in line.

I also got my wordle back up to 100% after being at 99% for a couple hundred days.

Only ever played/heard of Wordle before but I think I'm 100% on that so far. I only play it on the rare occasion I remember its existence though. First time doing this one and didn't really have any trouble, but I didn't see how the last 4 were related at all until it told me.

Today’s was harder, had to guess at the third one but it worked

This one was hard because I disagree with the green category. I actually guessed for the final one for that

mike is not a listening device, Mic is. Also, the others are more like ways of eavesdropping

I got blue after I shuffled and it put most of them next to each other. It was green that I thought was hardest

I was just told about that one yesterday. Totally screwed it up then because I didn't realize quite how it worked with the 5th movie.

Today I had no such issue.

Yeah I find the cross connector to be the most fun part. Usually the main ones are relatively easy to figure out, but you need to dig deep to pull out the 5th.

You try the reverse puzzle yet?
