Common Ground

A Connections-style puzzle that sorts sixteen words into four sets of four, written to avoid US-specific trivia and culture-bound references. Categories range from near-synonyms to lateral groups such as anagrams or letters in alphabetical order, and each solved set comes with a short explanation of the link and the red herrings.
