For what it's worth, I haven't played a game consistently for close to 20 years but Wordle stuck like glue for some reason. I've only missed two words in 3 weeks. It's kind of addictive. I might stop tomorrow, who knows, but it's interesting that I'm still returning to it day after day.

I'm notoriously bad at picking up habits too, even if it's something I want to do.

It's addictive but it's also impossible to burn out since it's just one per day.

If it was unlimited I would have likely gotten bored of it day 2.

Absolutely, I would have too. I'd burn 30m on it and totally forget about it.
You should try NYT’s Spelling Bee. I think it also has that daily coming back kind of attraction.
Ha, you're not kidding. That's really fun.
