About Word Groups
Word Groups is a free daily puzzle in the style of Connections. You get sixteen words and have to sort them into four hidden groups of four. One group might be rivers of Pakistan, another famous poets, another words that go before BALL. Some words look like they fit two groups, and that is the trick.
The groups get harder from yellow to purple. Make four mistakes and the puzzle is over, but if three of your four picks are right, the game tells you that you are one away. Every board mixes Pakistani general knowledge with English wordplay.
There is one new board every day for everyone, free and with no sign-up. Word Groups is made by TestUstad and is not affiliated with The New York Times or its Connections game.
