The answers to today's Connections, game #1196, are…


  • My rating: Hard
  • My score: 1 mistake

I fell straight down today’s trapdoor linking STICK FIGURE, BRANCH OUT, LOG CABIN and TWIGGY.

Had I looked at the board a bit more carefully I would have spotted that TWIGGY had to be connected to the famously skinny model and the other tiles ASSOCIATED WITH SWINGING LONDON IN THE 1960S. Alas, fools rush in.

Fortunately this was a relatively easy game and I was thankfully able to collect WIDEN ONE’S SCOPE and FEATURES OF A KID'S DRAWING, as STARTING WITH ABBREVIATED MATH FUNCTIONS went way above my head.


Yesterday's NYT Connections answers (Friday, September 18, 2026, game #1195)


  • YELLOW: SEGMENT OF A PROCESS: PHASE, ROUND, STAGE, STEP
  • GREEN: ASSORTMENTS OF FOOD/DRINK: FLIGHT, MEDLEY, PLATTER, SAMPLER
  • BLUE: PARTS OF A FLIGHT: BOARDING, CRUISE, LANDING, TAKEOFF
  • PURPLE: ____ CASE: BRIEF, PILLOW, STAIR, UPPER

What is NYT Connections?

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 three mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing room.

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