Calling all Connections connoisseurs!
Players of the popular word game that challenges you to find themes between words can now follow their progress and see their statistics, including the number of puzzles completed, the number of "perfect" puzzles, win rate, streaks and more.
Starting today, registered users can view their Connections statistics on a variety of platforms, including the New York Times Games app on iOS & Android, our News app on iOS and Android, as well as mobile web and desktop.
Our solvers repeatedly express enthusiasm for "nerding out" with stats. By introducing stats and streaks to Connections, New York Times Games is thrilled to fulfill that desire to analyze their solutions, reflect on their gameplay history, help them improve and discuss strategy with friends and family.
"We know how eager our players are to dive into their Connections stats. By giving them the tools to track, analyze, and reflect on their gameplay, we're not just meeting that need-we're elevating the entire experience," said Jonathan Knight, head of Games at The New York Times. "These new features are all about deepening the delight of the game, keeping the challenge fresh, and fostering long-term engagement. It's going to make Connections even more rewarding, social, and, most importantly, fun."
