POWER, ROBERT My rating: Hard My score: 2 mistakes I saw no threads when I began todays game, but slowly the mists of confusion parted and I eventually completed it but not before making a couple of mistakes

My first error was thinking that PLATE and PICTURE indicated a group linked
by baseball; with low knowledge on this topic I added MOUNT and BOARD.

Switching focus I made another error adding ENTER instead of FORCE to what
was to become QUANTITIES IN MECHANICS, the 'one away' helping me see the true connection.

From here it was plain sailing, although Im ashamed that I did not spot ___ PLANT. Kudos if you did, but the musical surname I connect with ROBERT is Smith, not the fella from Led Zeppelin.

NYT Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four items that share something in common, and each group has a different difficulty level: green
is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite tough and purple usually very difficult.

On the plus side, you don't technically need to solve the final one, as
you'll be able to answer that one by a process of elimination. What's more, you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing room.

It's a little more involved than something like Wordle, however, and there
are plenty of opportunities for the game to trip you up with tricks. For instance, watch out for homophones and other word games that could disguise the answers.

It's playable for free via the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
