I didn't even understand most of the answers when revealed.

Too hard for me too.

Blue you either know the game or you don't. Fair enough.

Yellow and green were very American though. Chess and shoofly? I kept trying to split shoofly into shoo and fly and do something with the pieces 😆

The only reason I guessed the green category was because I'd heard the American term caboose before, but can was new to me.

Purple was actually fairly straightforward but I simply didn't see it. I was too busy trying to figure out what chess and colonel could have in common 🤔

Yellow was too American for me today, I haven't heard of 2 of them. Also didn't know one of the greens, so had to guess. Probably should have seen purple but yellow really threw me.

What?!

Umm, cans and peaches bring to mind a different body part. But maybe that's the result of being a '90s kid.
