This may well be the easiest Connections puzzle I've ever solved. If not, it's certainly the one I solved in the shortest time: less than two minutes, from start to finish. And unusually, my game began with the purple group. Maybe that's why I found the rest of it easy; with the supposedly toughest game out of the way, it only got easier from there.
There was misdirection here, of course, so maybe I just got lucky. I suspect others will find this to be a rather simple one too, though.

What is NYT Connections?
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.
