Annoying. Doesn't seem that difficult now I can see the answers.

It takes a while. I found it after I downloaded the app for another game. It does click and you get to recognise themes. Stick with it!

Oh my goodness, I did it. Will probably never happen again😂

@FiveShelties I agree with @Elephantswillnever, you get more familiar with the types of connections after doing it for a while. I didn't manage today's though - quite a few of us failed! So it wasn't the easiest.

It's nice to see a few new names 😊welcome, keep trying!

Nice pattern anyway

Are there two different versions every day? I keep being offered a blue version that looks weird, but can find the proper purple version too.
