NYT Connections Puzzle, #1061

gamingMay 7, 20261

The New York Times published Connections Puzzle #1061, and completed grids show the answers grouped into four full-color categories, including a distinct four-tile purple set and a four-tile green set. Shared solutions display multiple blue- and yellow-dominated rows and varied guess patterns, with some players finishing in four rounds while others required more attempts. One solver posted Skill 81/99 and Uniqueness 1 in 50,000, and other shared notes listed completion times alongside daily Minis and Midis, such as 0:55 and 3:14. The clear color groupings and the rarity metric give solvers a concrete measure of difficulty and strategy for future Connections puzzles.
