NYT Connections today (game #1021) - the answers
The answers to today's Connections, game #1021, are…
- YELLOW: STEP ONTO, AS A VEHICLE BOARD, EMBARK, ENTER, MOUNT
- GREEN: QUANTITIES IN MECHANICS ACCELERATION, FORCE, MASS, MOMENTUM
- BLUE: TEXTBOOK IMAGES FIGURE, ILLUSTRATION, PICTURE, PLATE
- PURPLE: _____ PLANT FACE, PITCHER, POWER, ROBERT
- My rating: Hard
- My score: 2 mistakes
I saw no threads when I began today’s game, but slowly the mists of confusion parted and I eventually completed it — but not before making a couple of mistakes
My first error was thinking that PLATE and PICTURE indicated a group linked by baseball; with low knowledge on this topic I added MOUNT and BOARD.
Switching focus I made another error adding ENTER instead of FORCE to what was to become QUANTITIES IN MECHANICS, the 'one away' helping me see the true connection.
From here it was plain sailing, although I’m ashamed that I did not spot ___ PLANT. Kudos if you did, but the musical surname I connect with ROBERT is Smith, not the fella from Led Zeppelin.

What is NYT Connections?
NYT Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four items that share something in common, and each group has a different difficulty level: green is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite tough and purple usually very difficult.
On the plus side, you don't technically need to solve the final one, as you'll be able to answer that one by a process of elimination. What's more, you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing room.
It's a little more involved than something like Wordle, however, and there are plenty of opportunities for the game to trip you up with tricks. For instance, watch out for homophones and other word games that could disguise the answers.
It's playable for free via the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
