For players of the New York Times Connections puzzle, Rock Paper Shotgun has provided assistance for the Saturday, November 7, 2026, game.
Today's Hints
Players seeking a nudge can consider the following hints:
- Yellow: A pirate's payday.
- Green: You can't wear the same shirt to every event!
- Blue: Find these on a map.
- Purple: Nasty weather we're having...
Additional clues suggest that one group features words where only the second half is relevant, and every group contains at least one word with the letter 'R'. A revealed word for each category is also available: "Bounty" for Yellow, "Ringer" for Green, "New" for Blue, and "Easter" for Purple.
Revealed Groups
For those needing more direct guidance, the themes for each group of four words are:
- Yellow: Pirate's Plunder
- Green: Kinds of Shirts
- Blue: First Words of U.S. State Names
- Purple: Ends of Storm Types
Full Answer
The complete solution for today's Connections puzzle on Saturday, November 7, 2026, is as follows:
- Yellow: Pirate's Plunder (Booty, Bounty, Spoils, Treasure)
- Green: Kinds of Shirts (Henley, Polo, Raglan, Ringer)
- Blue: First Words of U.S. State Names (New, North, Rhode, South)
- Purple: Ends of Storm Types (Cane, Clone, Easter, Soon)
Players who found the purple category particularly challenging may have encountered the term "nor'easter," which influences the "Easter" ending. The puzzle resets daily at midnight.
