If I didn't know how to spell half of those words I would not have gotten the spanigram first.

Actually found the spangram first this time instead of finding some other word first but not selecting it.
It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha."

Aioli and the other sauces in Connections primed my brain for this. Record speed.

Super easy, even with me not knowing what Tzatziki is.

Greek cucumber yogurt sauce. If you've ever seen any white stuff on gyros or shawarma or kebabs or anything like that, it's Tzatziki.

lol, ditto. Like I recognized them, I'd heard of them, but I wouldn't have been able to spell them without narrowed search area and a little trial and error.

Immediately started looking for condiments, once I saw both ketchup and mustard ion the left side. Smooth sailing, although I had never heard of tzatziki, so I winged it on the spelling there

I've been staring it off and on for hours trying and failing to find words while I worked. Finally thought long and hard of what the theme was. Then I specifically went looking for what I thought the spangram might be and then finally found it.

I get the token part, but not appreciation. All I can think of is financial appreciation of value, but that's not really a part of the board game.

Another easy one. I saw the spangram almost immediately. The rest was done in about a minute.

As soon as I got the first one I got the theme. Did not know penguin . I guess it's new.

I think it's just a way to work in the word token .

I found this one quite tough myself, but I got it immediately after the two hints.

Hint was so vague I thought I'd be stuck for hours. Then I saw wheelbarrow and suddenly everything clicked.

Penguin fucking threw me, haha.

Is anyone else finding these easier if you just completely ignore the theme clue? I saw the Spangram pretty quickly and the rest followed suit almost straight away (seriously, there's a penguin? ). But I feel that if I'd been focused on the clue this would have taken me ages.

The theme was worthless. The hint revealed IRON, and immediately looked for the spanagram, and had it done in less than a minute

Wikipedia
By March 17, 2017, Hasbro retired three additional tokens, namely the thimble, wheelbarrow, and boot; these were replaced by a penguin, a Tyrannosaurus and a rubber duck.[98] In April 2022, it was announced that a previously retired token would return to Monopoly sets. The candidates for reintroduction were the wheelbarrow, thimble, iron, horse & rider, boot, and money bag. One existing token would also be dropped from the line-up.[99] Based on the results of the vote, Hasbro announced that, starting in spring 2023, the T-Rex would be replaced by the Thimble in regular sets of Monopoly.[100]

Gotta find me a T-Rex.

I got racecar and ship first which left poly exposed which made it extremely easy to get the spangram.

I got ship, then wheelbarrow. Then it clicked after a few minutes of confusion. I hate Monopoly, so it was not my first thought.

Wow this threw me for a long time. I haven't played monopoly in over 2 decades and we never called the pieces "tokens" so I wasn't thinking about Monopoly at all. I was confused on how the words were related to tokens lol.

I found chipmunk, tiger, clownfish, skunk, and bumblebee, and was sure it was talking cartoon animals until I found the spanagram.

Clownfish was first. Then I saw tiger and remembered there was one with spotted animals before and it all came together.
