I just do Wordle and Quordle (and Diggy's Adventure!) I also do the Guardian cryptic almost every day (you can do them online for free but I mostly print them out) the Prize crossword on Saturdays and then print out the Azed which usually takes us most of Sunday to do! :lol:

So just us three?

Has anyone felt tempted to try one mentioned they haven't attempted before? I have had a go at Quordle and Globle but I can't count Diggy as I never could understand that! :oops: :lol:

Yeah, too many on the list eats into your whole day. :)
I quite like: https://likewisetv.com/arcade/moviedle
You get to watch an entire movie compressed into 1 second and have to guess what it is. If you can't, you get 2 seconds, then 3 and 4. It's surprising how sometimes the 'feel' of a film can come through in a tiny time even when you genuinely don't have any chance to register details.
Never put off till tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.
All of my puzzles are simple and obvious. For certain values of "simple" and "obvious".

Back to an earlier conversation, I'm really enjoying the new extra bonus rounds on Worldle. :D (guess neighbours, capital and flag) It feels nicely educational.

I've been enjoying https://www.redactle.com/ where you have to figure out a Wikipedia article when pretty much every word is blanked out and your word guesses gradually fill it in.
It's insanely difficult but fun in that masochistic sort of way that these things are.
