Counterintuitive overall.

Yeah I didn't like today's very much. I had no idea about purple before getting it as my leftovers, and even after seeing the answer I'm still confused about one of them. And one of the greens felt very different to the others to me.

One thing I dislike is the speed at which the reveal take place. If you get all things wrong you get no time to read the answers, I read the green one by I don't know that the category for purple was.

Also sometimes I have no clue what the last four were, as I'm not a native speaker. The time you get for reading and reflecting on the answers is really short. I don't see they can't leave that up longer/ make it so you can revisit the puzzle.

If you are on about looking at the completed board, on the results page, at the top there is a link that says “back to puzzle” this goes back and lets you see what the connections are.

🟪🟪🟪🟪 Bit tough. Purple doesn’t make sense on a couple of those and others were guessing the last connection.

The blue was so much more obvious than the green, I was surprised that I got them the wrong way around. But looking at it, green is more "common knowledge", it's mostly harder because the words could connect in many different ways.
