The NYT Connections puzzle for today was a bit more difficult due to its fictious nature. I began my journey with the Yellow category and nailed it down after a brief fight. I don’t know why I had it confused with “The Chronicles of Narnia,” which is something I’m sure the staff wanted.
I then moved on to the Green category and had it down after I understood the misdirection. I did have trouble with the Blue category, but after a few failed attempts, I had that too.
With only four words left, I combined them all together along with the Purple category and the NYT Connections puzzle for April 13.
