Instead, I rushed in and connected the first four tiles that made sense.

Having said that, I still made a mistake before successfully putting together LONG CYLINDRICAL THINGS: I own a FOAM ROLLER, have used a POOL NOODLE, and once partook in the occasional CIGARETTE, so I was pretty sure shape was the link. However, having never owned a PRETZEL ROD I assumed they were shaped like a pretzel, so in a panic selected BODEGA thinking this might be slang
for something long and foamy. Of course it isnt.

This foolishness put aside I was able to see V-SHAPED THINGS, which duly triggered the annoying realization that I had rushed in when the glory of a purple hat-trick was within grasp.

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.
