One of the best things about Connections Hint is how the hint system is designed to help players without watering down the main challenge at the heart of the problem. The connections hint game allows for incremental tackling of the issue rather than giving you the whole answer at once. Players are presented with a 16-word grid and have to divide it into four groups of four words that are related in some way. And even if you see words that appear like they belong together, you still have to see if they are actually in the same group or if it’s just a coincidence. That’s part of the fun of each round. Stuck? Connections Hint lets you see the group’s name or theme first. Sometimes a little indication is all it takes to identify a link you missed before. If the answer is still not displayed, the words in that group can be shown one by one. This mechanic provides a flexible experience, being able to complete the whole grid personally if proficient, or having useful tools in case of need for less experienced players. The end result is a game that is tough, yet approachable.
