Welcome to the weekend, puzzlers! There’s a rugged Connections waiting for you today—each group has one word that, when taken with the one word from another group, could easily form its own group. But they don’t, so you’d be wrong. (Like we were, darn it.) Maybe you’ll need some wake-me-up background music to get you ready—something nice and gentle like the Helldivers 2 soundtrack, maybe? Go spread democracy!
Here for you while you listen are your daily sweet 16 words, back and ready for your best grouping efforts. The popular Connections brainbuster from The New York Times has four groups of words with a shared theme or commonality, but they’re shuffled into random order for you to figure out. Remember to take your time — many words have multiple meanings, so think twice before you click.
Today’s words: REAL, MEDIUM, IMPRESSIVE, EXCLUSIVE, NICE, RARE, AWFUL, MYSTIC, WAY, WELL DONE, BLOODY, LIMITED, ORACLE, PROPS, COLLECTIBLE, and PSYCHIC.
