Nexos (La Nación)
Sort sixteen Spanish words into four hidden groups of four.
Every day: One board of 16 Spanish words a day, the same for every player: sort them into four groups of four, with four lives. New puzzle: Midnight in your local time zone (the game loads the puzzle for your device's date).
Nexos is La Nación's daily grouping puzzle. Sixteen Spanish words are shuffled on the board, and you pick four at a time that share a hidden link; a wrong group costs one of your four lives. Up to two hints a game point you toward a group's theme.
About Nexos (La Nación)
Nexos is a daily word-grouping game from LN Juegos, launched in March 2025. Each day's board holds 16 Spanish words that make four groups of four, each linked by a different theme, and the links are not always easy to separate.
You select four words you think belong together and press send. A right group locks into place at the top of the board; a wrong one costs one of your four lives. Since June 2025 you can reveal up to two hints per game with the light-bulb button, each pointing at the theme of one group, though hints lower your ranking score.
It is part of LN Juegos, the games section of the Buenos Aires newspaper La Nación, and is played in Spanish in the browser. Today's puzzle is free without an account. Earlier days in the calendar and the LN Juegos ranking ask you to log in, and the game sends you to La Nación's registration and subscription pages for them.
It suits players of Connections who want the same kind of puzzle in Spanish.
