What NYT Games do you play?

[~Kilza~]

I've seen a few people on here mention playing some of the NYT Games at various points, so I'm curious to see what everybody plays and what their favorite game is!

For me, I ended up getting into them the past year, and at the moment I play the Mini, Connections, Wordle, Pips, Strands, Tiles (usually), Sudoku (all difficulty levels), and Sports Connections daily. The Crossword is a little too time consuming, and I'm not that great at Spelling Bee and Letter Boxed, lol. My favorite of the bunch is Pips with Sudoku just behind it, since I like logic puzzles.

Just Wordle for me, or at least it's the only one I play on a regular basis. I've tried Connections a few times, but I'm not very good at it. They have some really obscure categories sometimes.

I play Wordle, the Mini crossword, Connections, Spelling Bee, Pips, Strands, Letter Boxed, and Sports Connections. They're each very quick games, whereas I don't have time for the full crossword. I find Tiles boring, and I only occasionally play the easy Sudoku. I should probably play more Sudoku so I improve, because I'm not great at it.

Spelling Bee is my favourite because I like to get the "pangram" first, and then come up with enough words to meet Genius rank. There was a good deal on a NYT subscription a little while ago, so I picked that up (before that I would only find the pangram, since Spelling Bee is locked behind a paywall).

Yesterday I did not get the pangram in Spelling Bee, because the word was... PETTIFOG. Honestly.
