    The game

    A daily trivia challenge with a rarity score.

    New to the format? Read what Krillion Game is before jumping into the rules and answer strategy.

    Krillion is a free online daily. Every player gets the same seven category prompts, in the same order, once per day. You have roughly 15–20 seconds to name one thing that fits. Common answers barely move you. Rare answers that the official list still accepts sink you toward the trench.

    The original client lives at krillion.io. This companion does not host a clone. We publish today’s Krillion answers, Krillion hints, the Krillion archive, and a 700-point calculator so you can study the meta without pretending to be the publisher.

    Daily Dive #83 started on 16 July 2026. A new set seals at 04:00 UTC. Extra runs belong on Krillion unlimited plus the movies, sports, and geography packs. Those modes do not overwrite the daily score you compare with friends.

    How to play

    Seven prompts. One answer. Rarity pays.

    1. Open the Daily Dive

    Start at krillion.io. There is no difficulty slider and no category picker. The seven prompts are the dive.

    2. Answer in ~20 seconds

    Type a single word or short phrase. If the clock hits zero on a blank, that prompt is worth nothing.

    3. Stay inside the category

    A clever reject scores zero. The official list is the only validator. Spelling variants can fail even when the idea is right.

    4. Depth is score × 10

    Each point is 10 metres. 700 points is 7,000 metres. That is the published trench floor for a near-perfect day.

    Full walkthrough on how to play. Too Clever and the other five tiers are on the rarity scale.

    Score guide

    How deep is a good score?

    Official reveal tiers run Plankton 10, Too Clever 15, Schooler 30, Rare 60, Deep Cut 85, One in a Krillion 100. Seven perfect 100s is 700. Depth uses the same five ocean-light zones oceanographers describe, from the sunlit surface to the hadal trenches.

    Sunlight0–20 pt

    0–200 m. The answers everyone typed.

    Twilight20–100 pt

    200–1,000 m. A few uncommon picks.

    Midnight100–400 pt

    1,000–4,000 m. Rare answers start to pay.

    Abyssal400–600 pt

    4,000–6,000 m. A seriously good dive.

    Hadal / trench600–700 pt

    6,000–7,000 m. Almost every answer was rare and accepted.

    Strategy

    Think past the first answer.

    Every prompt is a tiny auction. Crowded bids are cheap. Specific, still-valid bids pay.

    Burn two seconds

    Your first idea is the school’s idea. List three valid answers before you commit.

    Specific beats general

    On an animal prompt, “axolotl” usually out-dives “dog”, if it clearly fits.

    Skip the stretch

    If the category is narrow, a middle-rung lock beats a rejected 100-point fantasy.

    Type before panic

    Pick by second ten. A typo on a brilliant answer scores the same as a blank.

    Unlimited and packs

    Daily, themed, or endless.

    Play the daily set first. Use Krillion unlimited when you want volume without spending the one score that counts.

    FAQ

    Common questions

    What is Krillion?

    A free daily trivia game at krillion.io. Everyone gets the same seven prompts, about 20 seconds each. Rare accepted answers score more than obvious ones, and each point is 10 metres of depth.

    How do you play the daily dive?

    Open the official Daily Dive, read each category, and type one answer before the clock ends. A blank or rejected answer scores nothing. One official attempt counts per day; unlimited and themed packs are extra practice.

    What are today's Krillion answers?

    Today's Krillion answers for Tuesday, October 6, 2026 (dive #83) cover seven prompts and 1827 official accepted answers, from Plankton (10 points) to One in a Krillion (100 points).

    How does scoring work?

    After you submit, your word is compared with other valid answers for that prompt. Crowded answers stay near the surface. Uncommon accepted answers sink you. A perfect 700-point run is 7,000 metres.

    What is a good score?

    100 points (1,000 m) is already a strong midnight-zone dive. 400 points reaches the abyss. 600–700 points is trench territory and means almost every pick was rare and accepted.

    When does the next dive reset?

    The official daily set resets at 04:00 UTC. Tomorrow’s answers stay sealed until then. This page shows a live countdown.

    Is there an unlimited mode?

    Yes. The publisher runs unlimited classic plus movies, sports, and geography packs at krillion.io. Those modes do not replace your one daily score.

    Is this the official site?

    No. krillion-game.com is an independent companion for Krillion answers. Play the original at krillion.io. This site logs the public reveal, hints, an archive, and a score calculator.
