Hello everyone! I hope you have a great weekend.
today’s RIVET Connection hints and answers keep coming.
How to play hookup
in Connection, you will see a grid of 16 words. Your task is to arrange them into four groups of four by finding the links between them. Groups can be things like horror movie franchises, type of verbs, or rappers.
There is only one solution to each puzzle and you will need to be careful about words that may fall into more than one category. You can mix up the words so you might see connections between them.
Each group is color coded. The yellow group is usually the easiest to detect, the blue and green fall in the middle, and the purple group is usually the hardest to deduce. The purple group often includes puns, so keep that in mind.
Choose four words that you think go well together and press submit. If you guess and are not wrong, you will lose a life. If you’re close to getting the group right, you might get a message saying you’re one word away from getting it right, but you’ll still have to figure out which one to replace.
If you make four mistakes, it’s game over. Let’s make sure that doesn’t happen with a few tips, and if you’re really struggling, today’s Connection answers.

Boo, my five game streak is over.
The yellow ones got me. My first guess was SHRINK, MELT, CONDENSE and VAPORIZE. After that didn’t work I looked elsewhere and found the greens, thanks to BACKUP and ALTERNATE.
I had no idea about blues or purples, other than a vague idea that COPPER didn’t refer to metal. So I chose the trial-and-error method on yellow. Unfortunately, every estimate I made involved SHRINK, so I was doomed. Womp wmp.
