Connections answer today
Here is the answer to today's Connections puzzle on Monday, 29th June:
- ๐จ Yellow: Old Timey Troublemakers (Miscreant, Rogue, Ruffian, Scoundrel)
- ๐ฉ Green: Consume with Gusto (Crush, Guzzle, Inhale, Snarf)

- ๐ช Purple: Ending in Parts of a Tree (Embark, Groot, Nudibranch, Strunk)
If you thought this Connections puzzle wasn't going to have a classic and infuriating twist, you'd be wrong! The purple group, once again, was that guy. It's hard enough finding connections with the whole words upfront.
When you start having to disassemble words to find their true meaning, it gets near impossible. That's enough to cost anyone their puzzle!
