I typically just keep on playing whatever game I'm currently in the middle of, and I don't stop until I've beat it. I guess there might be some indecision in choosing my next game, otherwise there's no daily choice.

Spent about 2 months getting all the achievements on Empires of the Undergrowth before moving onto the next game (Dave the Diver) for ~a month now.

It's pretty common for me to spend multiple hundreds of hours on a game before going to the next.
