Today's Connections Hints & Answers For June 12, 2024 (Puzzle #366)

screenrant.com:

It's time for Wednesday's puzzle and this one is a bit tricky. Most of the words are all titles of films, but some of them belong in a film-related category and some do not. However, with some help and some spoilers if necessary, we can help you keep your streak alive so you do not lose today's puzzle.

Once you have finished, you might want to head back to the NYT site to try . Instead of grouping words, you will be asked to find the word of the day by guessing which letters go in which column. It's a test of your knowledge of words as well as a logic puzzle to figure out what letters are right and which are not.

Wordle, the popular word-guessing game hosted by The New York Times, has over 1,700 words remaining as possible solutions.

For those who just want a little hint instead of the full answers, here are the categories for this Wednesday's puzzle with full spoilers afterward:

PLACES IN NEW YORK CITY

RHYMING TITLES

ENDING IN UNITS OF MEASUREMENT

STARTING WITH ANIMALS

PLACES IN NEW YORK CITY

CHINATOWN

DUMBO

MANHATTAN

WALL STREET

We struggled with this one, as DUMBO does not look like it belongs on this list. Perhaps if we lived in New York, we would know that it is a location in New York City, but as it stands we were trying to loop it with other categories. That being said, CHINATOWN, MANHATTAN, and WALL STREET all led us to believe that this was the category, it just took us longer to get there.

RHYMING TITLES

BE KIND REWIND

E.T.

FRIGHT NIGHT

KILL BILL

This one could be confusing, as the titles do not rhyme with each other but rather themselves. With so many movies in the puzzle today, figuring out which ones belonged together was difficult. However, often likes to put together categories that are there to trick the player, so spotting something like rhyming is a good way to try to separate words if nothing else is obvious.

Four categories with four words each sounds simple, but the daily challenge of the Connections game can prove difficult
