NYT Connections hints and answers for Friday, October 16 (game #1223)
Looking for NYT Connections answers and hints? Here's all you need to know to solve today's game, plus my commentary on the puzzles.
Today's NYT Connections puzzle (#1223) presented four themed groups, each with four related words. To assist players, I offer some hints:
For the YELLOW group, think about paint-related imperfections. The GREEN group revolves around countries that don't border water. The BLUE group consists of European nations missing a single letter. Finally, for the PURPLE group, look for stylish terms starting with certain words.
The four answers for today's Connections puzzle are: SURFACE IMPERFECTIONS (CHIP, MARK, NICK, SCRATCH); LANDLOCKED COUNTRIES (CHAD, HUNGARY, LAOS, PARAGUAY); EUROPEAN COUNTRIES MINUS A LETTER (BULGARI, CYRUS, HUNGRY, SPAN); and STARTING WITH WORDS FOR STYLISH (CHICKEN, COOLIDGE, HIPPO, SMARTIES).
