Daily, I play Wordle and 7 Little Words when I first get up, but I was wondering what other types of quick games like that that people play regularly.

Does Duolingo count as a game?

[–] Spzi@lemmy.click 1 points 1 year ago

Depends on your approach. I considered creating a community 'competitive duolingo', but since we already have two duo comms I decided against that:

I still play Wordle daily, but I'm also a big fan of Cell Tower and Worble

I just lost a streak of 250+ yesterday on wordle :(.

Oof. That hurts.

I like to play the NYT mini crossword every day. I like asking other people for advice on it when I get stuck so it's both a fun daily game and a good way to do a bit of socializing.

I'm a big fan of Redactle.

My best score so far is 1 guess. Can't remember what clue I spotted in the pre-cleared words, but guessed that the answer was 'Ball', and it was. On average though, I'm closer to 60 guesses or so.

Thanks for showing me this. Now I wasted most of my day on this. Really fun.

It's an absolute time suck if you move from just doing the shared daily puzzle to just going ham on random articles. I love it immensely.

I like all version of the Nerdles, playing mostly the Classic, Bi, Mini, and Mini Bi. Though they recently added the Crossnerdle and that might be my favorite. You can also make your own Pro Nerdle and send them to your friends with way more operators to choose from!

I commented mathler which seems like a simpler version, but this looks awesome!

I do NY Times crosswords. quite challenging as an ESL, but very satisfying. so far I've only been able to solve Monday or Tuesday ones, and I still use the "check puzzle" helper to see how many words I got wrong when I'm stuck, but I don't have to look up stuff online anymore!

Yeah, they’re tough. My wife and I do them together and can usually do up to Wednesdays without too much help, then things get ugly.
