I play it most weekdays, but there have been large breaks in my playing from time to time. I always either get it really quickly or not at all, its frustrating

Connections has good days and bad days. But still a fun mini game nonetheless.

I play it, yeah; it's a tough challenge and gets you thinking. Some of the items are things I've never heard of though, that I presume must be some niche American slang.

It is quite American centric

Well it is based in an American city. I would expect if the BBC put out a game it would be very UK Centric.
