    Got yellow instantly. Spent a very long time thinking

    spoilers

    clock, register, spot, and something else had to go together.

    Eventually realised the correct green, which required breaking up my red herring. But was nearly completely lost for blue and purple, until I took a shot on an incorrect answer that happened to be 1 away

    spoilers

    I was trying “dog names”, which I was pretty sure was wrong. I started from “cliff” and “spot”, and then just added in “dick” and “jane” since people names can be dog names too. One away allowed me to think about it and realise the “face” thing.

    Fell for the herring and then

    wasn’t familiar enough with Dick and Jane characters to separate Cliff from Mother

    Ugh. Didn’t know any from blue so was never getting that and I guessed what purple was but didn’t get the last one.

    Couldn’t work out which was blue and which was purple, so just missed the rainbow…

    Was unsure about “mother”, but it worked out.

    Should have got Purple - never would have got Blue.

    Loved the red herring this game!
