I love the NYT Connections game, but some days it makes me feel like an absolute idiot because I can't get a single group correct and am puzzled when the solutions are revealed :D Together with globle, travle, worldle, framed and gamedle these couple of games are what I play during my morning coffe break, and I'm glad that they exist. If I feel like more I also try to solve boxofficegame and tradle, but I can't solve them often.

A lot of them need knowledge of USA culture and American English phrases. That's usually what I fail on.

  Yeah that's true, was an issue on todays Connections as well :/

  Watching a lot of American television, I'm normally OK, but what got me recently in connections is that apparently Jelly Beans are associated with Easter in the USA... that was a completely new revelation to me.

Add Dadagrams to your list: https://dadagrams.com/ https://dadagrams.com/ No affiliation, it was posted to HN a while back and that is how I found it. The premise is fun, you're playing against the developers dad.

  Thanks for the tip! Just played it and was absolutely destroyed by a random dad. I'm really not good at these word-based games, my strength is Globle and Travle. But Dadagrams is fun, added it to my bookmarks ;)
