While I play around on several games on NYTimes, the game that I most enjoy remains Connections. And today, Connections hit the milestone of 1000 Puzzles [of which I seem to have played 587].
I was curious how they were going to celebrate, and we got a cute little message and a unique object:
Didn’t have too much trouble beating and getting the Reverse Rainbow [Purple, Blue, Green, Yellow in that order]: solving from hardest to easy category. To be honest, though, I just went for a category with the cute little Connections icon. It just happened to be, well, I guess already spoiled it: Purple.
All in all, the growing bloat and badges and all that are starting to detract from me enjoying even the regular rotation of NYT Games, but’s been fun playing this for the past year or two.
Even if I don’t make it to 2000 [or 1300, at this rate], just wanted to swing by and say “congrats” to the team behind it.
It’s been one of the better ones.
