what the country of the day is. Every day there is a new mystery country and you have to guess the mystery country using the fewest number of guesses. Each incorrect guess will appear on the globe with a color indicating how close it is to the mystery country. https://globle-game.com/ It really challenges my geography knowledge - which is worse than I thought, especially when it comes to parts of Africa and small Pacific island countries.
