I'm sure everyone's heard of Wordle by now. I can't play it, I'm in the control group (XKCD reference).

I learned of a world geography Wordle-type game that is kind of fun, and in trying to find it, Russet found a second!

This one isn't constrained by X number of guesses, it uses a hotter/colder approach to your guesses and ranks them by how close they are to the country of the day.

This one gives you a distance your guess is to the country of the day and shows you an outline of said country, not to scale.

Also, if you're a glutton for punishment, or a math geek, there's Nerdle! You're given eight blank squares and six rows, the numbers 0 to 9, and the basic math operators of + - * / and =. And you have to build a correct basic equation!

Russet found a Tolkien Worlde game, but I'm kind of mad at it. We were racking our brains thinking of a name that had ?LEA? and the word was CLEAR! So I don't think I'm going to bother with that one. It's available on Github, I'm guessing it is perhaps in beta and the developer may still be developing a web site. I'm sure you could find it by searching for Tolkein Wordle Game.

Different ideas for both of these simple games. Seems like we're having a small renaissance of them.
