The NYT 's latest daily word game has become a social media hit. The Times credits associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu with helping to create the new word game and bringing it to the publications' Games section. Connections can be played on both web browsers and mobile devices and require players to group four words that share something in common.

The New York Times's recent game, "Strands," is becoming more and more popular as another daily activity fans can find on the NYT website and app.
