Krillion, briefly
What time does Krillion reset?
- Krillion's daily dive changes at midnight Eastern Time, which is 04:00 UTC while New York is on EDT. The countdown at the top of this page converts it to your own time zone. Reset time in detail
How does Krillion work?
- Each daily dive gives you 7 prompts, such as a category to name something from. You give one answer per prompt, and the fewer other players who gave the same answer, the more it scores. The goal is a correct answer that almost nobody else thought of. Full rules
What is Too Clever in Krillion?
- Too Clever is the tier for an answer that feels obscure but is actually a popular choice. The official FAQ describes it as the go-to "obscure" pick that isn't actually that obscure, and at 15 points it scores only a little more than the most common tier. All tiers explained
Where do the answers on this site come from?
- Each day's prompts and answers are synced automatically from the answer sheet Krillion publishes for that day. A sheet can hold thousands of answers, so we show every 100-point answer and a selection from each tier below. Dates from before we began syncing come from a third-party archive. Every page says which it is, and a day with nothing synced shows nothing. Sources and editorial policy
Is this the official Krillion site?
- No. Krillion Today is an independent companion site and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Krillion. The official daily game is at krillion.io.
What are some games similar to Krillion?
- If you like naming the answer nobody else does, try our free Unlimited practice mode, or see our list of games like Krillion for other daily puzzles built on rare answers, categories and trivia.
Is it Krillion, Krilion or Kirllion?
- The game is spelled Krillion: K-r-i-l-l-i-o-n, like "krill" plus "-ion". Krilion, Kirllion and Krillon are common typos for the same game, so if you searched one of those, you're in the right place.
