3 Tips for Connect Word Level 1187
Five found means that theme is finished
Connect Word puts exactly five words behind every main category, and level 1187 is no exception: 13 themes, 65 words in the main grid. So the moment a theme shows five, stop digging there and move on — the letters you have left belong to the categories that are still short.
Read all 13 category names before you swipe
The category names are the only clue the game gives you, and reading all 13 of them first rules out most of the dictionary. A narrow name such as Spirit Of Sportsmanship pins its five answers far harder than a broad one, which makes it the cheapest place to start.
Expect 8 multi-word answers
Roughly one Connect Word answer in six is a phrase rather than a single word, and level 1187 holds 8 of them — entries like Polka Dot Dress. If a theme looks one short, the missing entry is often two words you have been reading as one. This level totals 65 words against a game average of 59.1, and sits in block 12 of 46 (levels 1101–1200).
Verified Answers, Not Guesses
How we verify level 1187
The 65 words on this page are read straight from the level data, category by category, not retyped. Duplicate category blocks the source publishes are collapsed before the page is built, so the 13 categories here are 13 distinct themes and the word total is the real one — no answer is counted twice.

How to Solve a Connect Word Board
Three habits that clear any Connect Word board, whichever mode you are in.
Read every category name first
The category names are the only clue the game gives you, and reading all of them before you touch a tile rules out most of the dictionary. A narrow theme pins its answers far harder than a broad one, which makes it the cheapest place to start.
Count the slots, do not count to five
Every category in the numbered levels holds exactly five words, so five means finished. The daily and event boards do not follow that rule — their categories hold four or five. Read the empty slots the board draws or you will abandon a theme one answer early.
Expect phrases, not just words
Roughly one Connect Word answer in six is two words rather than one. When a category sits one short, the gap is usually a phrase you have been reading as a single word.
