I have never heard of that purple one. Even after seeing the answer I had to look it up.

It's pretty old, but people might've heard of it from jump rope or hand clap games on the playground in elementary school if you're older than ~40

Purple is unfair.

Spiller

I thought green would be things which fly.

I didn’t have any idea what purple was.

Got blue and green pretty easily with this one. Couldn’t see anything between the others. Got lucky with yellow when I just went with what i thought worked. Never heard of purple like most here.

Like others, I never heard of the purple reference but got luck on my 2nd guess as some of the words all had CK in them, so I got a “One Away”.

Yeah I had exactly the same logic as you with purple. Took me a bit longer to get from there to the answer though.

faaaaark. I literally just guessed purple

I thought about "things that fly" for green, but only saw 3, so gave up on that line...

edit: I had no recollection of it before, but after looking up the answer afterwards, I do recall purple.

I though gree was the same but the though about Australia with thier flying doctors.
