How to Play NYT Connections 3×3

NYT Connections 3×3 is a variation of Connections played on a smaller board. Where the standard puzzle gives you sixteen words to sort into four groups of four, this one gives you nine words to sort into three groups of three.

Play works the same way: look for three words that have something in common, tap or click to select them, then submit to see whether the group is correct. Keep going until all three groups have been found.
