NYT Connections hints today: Clues, answers for October 3, 2026
Connections is a New York Times word game that's all about finding the "common threads between words." How to solve the puzzle.
Today's NYT Connections puzzle has a variety of categories, each with four words that share a common thread. For the yellow category, the terms all refer to toilet-related items such as a can opener, head waiter, John Denver, and W.C. Fields. The green category includes musicals like elbow grease, fat cats, Linda Hamilton, and something wicked.
The blue category features U.S. museums such as Board Bean, Getty Images, Met halfway, and Whitney Houston. Lastly, the purple category comprises fantasy creatures like diet spr. Players have four mistakes before the game ends, and each correct grouping removes the words from the board.
