A bunch of new internet games have appeared lately, all of which are helpful in helping us forget, at least for a few moments, that the world is fucked.
Here is a game called Wikitrivia. You get given historical events, and have to put them in the right order. Three strikes and you're out. My longest streak so far is 14.
I assume you know about Wordl, but here is Octordle, which is a lot more fun, imo.
If Octordle is too much of a commitment, here's Dordle, which is simpler.
Nerdle requires math, so I haven't tried it yet, but if you like math, go for it.
Feel free to add games I haven't yet discovered in the comments!

Absurdle by qntm is "adversarial wordle" with no preset word - I find it difficult to explain, but quite charming.
And for a rather different word based game - Babble Royale (which is free on steam I think?) is a multiplayer "battle royale" version of scrabble. It scratches the same fast-paced-two-dimensional-genuine-multiplayer-action itch as agar.io for me, but with extra bananagram energy.
Ooo, I need to check these out.
Wikitrivia is a neat change from the letter grids; your 14-event streak is impressive. I tried Nerdle with 19+28=47 and found that checking a valid equation is a different challenge from Dordle. Another game you might enjoy is Worldle, where each guess gives distance and direction clues. A short recording comparing the first turn of each would be helpful; you could remove a webcam background from a game recording if it covers the clue area. Which of these has held your attention longest?
