Players are tasked with grouping four words that share a common theme in each of the game's four categories. The categories change daily, with today's being Even Match, Types of Hockey Shots, Brewers to Win MVP, and Young. Each puzzle features 16 words and players get four mistakes before the game ends. Color-coded categories range from yellow (easiest) to purple (most challenging). Players can rearrange and shuffle the board to make spotting connections easier.",
