If I had a long day off and the capability to switch between multiple games, then yeah. Otherwise, I usually just do one at a time.
 
Depends. I chill out a bunch with Garry's Mod but I'd have moods where I'd rotate between various games. Currently, games in rotation are Garry's Mod, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Dynasty Warriors (8, 9, and Orochi 3), Sonic Racing Crossworlds, and The Sims 4. There are several more too that I'd like to get back into playing, namely Monster Hunter Rise, Left 4 Dead 2, Grand Theft Auto V, and Sonic Robo Blast 2 Kart. Some games I did neglect to play for a while that I need to pick up again, such as Ori and the Blind Forest, Lego Star Wars the Skywalker Saga, Baldur's Gate 3, Borderlands, Bomb Rush: Cyberfunk, and Saints Row IV.
 
It depends greatly for me depending on which is at the highest of my mind at the moment. Give today and yesterday for example.

Yesterday I spent basically all day playing Balatro to unlock the Wee Joker and Merry Andy (by winning a run in 12 or less rounds), but today I varied through some new things I bought yesterday, such as beating the first area for two gears in Ball X Pit, some new Rift of the Necrodancer songs (hoping to beat Reach for the Summit one day, like 480 notes/minute (1200 in ~2:30) but that seems like insanity), Dave the Diver, and dying over and over again and accidentally farming lives in Mario Galaxy 2.

I could gladly spend a day playing my latest favorite game, main case of Balatro or Among Us, but sometimes I like to swap every once in a while, like doing some Smash Bros against level 9s to more Rift playthroughs, to a round of Balatro, and more.

Then there's daily games like Animal Crossing I play their once-per-day for a bit, then forget to do so for 2 months.
 
I like to do it one at a time, ESPECIALLY when I'm 100%ing games.
 
I juggle multiple series until one becomes an obsession that I'll focus on until I see it all the way through... then I go back to juggling again until I find the next big thing for me.
 
I'm not a multitasker, so I usually play one game at a time...unless it's Animal Crossing, then I'd have to keep my town in check while I play something like Minecraft, Wii Sports, and so on.
