What is Vennections?
Vennections is a daily word puzzle that blends sorting, deduction, and vocabulary. Each day you're given nine words to organize into three related groups, then uncover a single word that ties them all together.
How to play Vennections
Start by placing the nine words from the word bank into the red, yellow, and blue circles, aiming for three groups of three related words. You can check your groupings at any time—correct groups reveal their category, while incorrect ones cost a try. Once the categories are revealed, solve the center Vennection, a new word that connects all three categories, using optional hints for the first letter or letter count.

- Use the check feature early on small groups to confirm your reasoning without wasting tries.
- Don't wait to attempt the center word—you can guess it anytime, even before sorting all words.
