The Connections puzzle for June 27 was a bit more difficult to solve compared to its weird mixture of categories yesterday. As such I began my journey by solving the Yellow category and due to my intense experience in RPG games, had it figured out quickly.
The Green category came next and while I am a hopeless romantic, I am also hopeless. Nonetheless, I had these words in the bag. The Blue category made its entry and as a tradition required Googling yet again.
With only four words left, I got them all together to get the Purple category and the NYT Connections for June 27.
