How do you waste your time over your morning coffee and/or at odd hours of the day, apart from here on GB? wink headscratch idea

My own regular daily twenty minutes of brain training with my morning extra strong latte consists of Wordle, Quordle (classic, sequence and rescue), Tightrope, Dordle and Alphaguess, all easily found online and free.

Of course, there are plenty of games which offer small puzzle segments (assuming that you are strong minded enough to stop at one or two at a time), but I am never sure which section of the gaming threads is appropriate for those: probably not quite casual, but no other obvious category, so perhaps here...

I have in mind games like Baba Is You, Steven's Sausage Roll, Wormholes, and more recently CATO: buttered cat. cat

I like your morning lineup, Lex. Wordle, Quordle and Connections are my daily musts.

I'm currently being held captive by The Artisan of Glimmith. I'm 70 hours in and still loving it. Just carefully crafted puzzle after puzzle in a gorgeous setting with soothing music.


If you spell the words "absolutely nothing" backwards, you get "Gnihton yletulosba",
which ironically means absolutely nothing.

I love the whole series of puzzles on Brainzilla. I think the Zebra puzzles are my favorite but they have 50 different games and puzzles that really are enjoyable.


It's nice to be important but it is much more important to be nice.

I play Wordle, Connections and Strands daily and sometimes Spelling Bee.


I joined a group for procrastinators. We haven't met yet.

I need to checkout Wordle. Eveyone seems to enjoy that.

Crossword puzzles and Wordle are fun when I'm on the road ... the Garden of Puzzling Delights is my main hangout
