NYT Connections Puzzle for July 25 Delivers a Royally Fun Challenge
So today’s New York Times Connections puzzle for July 25, 2025—game #775—offered a really entertaining mix of categories, and honestly, it might’ve been one of the more approachable ones we’ve seen in a while. If you're into wordplay, patterns, or just love the daily brain teaser challenge, this puzzle definitely delivered a solid few minutes of fun.
Now, for those who aren’t as familiar, the Connections game tasks you with sorting 16 words into four groups of four. Each group shares some kind of hidden link—maybe a theme, a grammatical pattern, a cultural reference—you get the idea. The challenge? Some words can easily feel like they fit in multiple places. You get four chances to make mistakes, and once you're out, game over.
Today’s yellow category—the easiest one—was all about things that are hush-hush. Words like mum , quiet , private , and secret made up this group. Pretty straightforward if you think about being discreet or keeping something under wraps. These were all terms we associate with silence or confidentiality, and they came together pretty intuitively.

Next was the green category, which required just a bit more thought. This one was all about U.S. state abbreviations. So if you're quick to recognize those two-letter postal codes, you probably picked up on IN (Indiana), MA (Massachusetts), OH (Ohio), and OK (Oklahoma). Nothing too tricky here if you're geography-savvy.
The blue group brought a fun twist—it was all about baseball calls. This one made me smile: ball , fair , foul , and out . If you’ve ever been to a baseball game or even just watched a few innings on TV, these terms probably rang a bell. It was a nice, nostalgic nod to summer sports.
And then we had the purple category, which is traditionally the toughest. But today? Surprisingly not bad. The theme was “Queen ____.” The words? bed , bee , Mary , and Mother . Each of those pairs naturally with the word “Queen” to form common phrases or titles. Think Queen Bee , Queen Mary , Queen Mother , and Queen Bed . If you're into British royalty—or even just familiar with furniture—it probably clicked pretty fast.
Overall, the July 25 puzzle had a really satisfying mix of logic and pop culture with just a sprinkle of challenge. And if you didn’t get a perfect score today? No worries—there’s always tomorrow’s puzzle to redeem yourself. Just remember: shuffle the words, say them out loud, and look for those subtle connections. The game’s not just about vocabulary—it’s about thinking outside the box.
