Contexto is one of the nerdiest word games out there. The game tasks you with finding the word of the day by showing how close other words you guess are to it. This is measured by analyzing thousands of texts to find similarities between words.
How to play Contexto
You play Contexto by typing a word into the text box—anything that comes to mind. When you submit your guess, it will appear under the text box with a number next to it and a bar that can be red, yellow, or green. The lower the number of the word you guessed is, the more it’s related to today’s Contexto solution. The higher it is, the worse your guess is.
That’s why if you make a good guess, shown by a low number and a green color bar, you should keep guessing similar words—for example, if “internet” is green, I would try “connection” or “computer.”
Conversely, if it’s a high number and red, try something totally different. Using the same example, if “internet” was red, I would try “dog” or “eyes.”
Contexto 675 hints (July 24)
The solution to the July 24 puzzle, Contexto 675, is related to colors and flowers. “Garden” was my first green guess, and moving into specific flowers also scored me a few points and got me closer to my goal.

Today’s answer is both a color and a type of flower. You’ll need to really think hard about this one, however—simple flower-color combos like “rose” and “fuschia” only get you so far. Specific colors will get you very close, like “lavender,” so consider other colors that’re also names of flowers. A final hint; today’s Contexto begins with the letter “L”!
