Krillion #117 Answers for November 9, 2026

Krillion scores every accepted answer in one of six tiers: Plankton 10, Too Clever 15, Schooler 30, Rare 60, Deep Cut 85 and One in a Krillion 100. An answer the game does not accept, or no answer in time, scores 0. Each point is 10 meters, so a perfect 700 reaches 7,000 meters.

In Krillion, Too Clever is the go-to "obscure" pick that is not actually that obscure, according to Krillion's FAQ. The home screen puts it another way: the pick that feels clever, yet the school thought of it too. It is worth 15 points, only five more than Plankton, which is why players fall for it.

One in a Krillion is the designated gem for each prompt in Krillion, worth the full 100 points. Krillion's FAQ says the gem is chosen partly for fun factor, as the answer that is most satisfying to land on, so it can be less rare than some Deep Cuts. A krillion is not a real number; Krillion is simply the game's name.

According to Krillion's FAQ, answer sets are built by aggregating datasets such as dictionaries, wiki pages and encyclopedias, then merged and cleaned. Some prompts are scored against a familiarity database of how often a word or name appears in what people read and write; others use LLM assistance plus a manual pass. Rarity does not come from player counts.

Krillion resets at midnight Eastern Time, on New York's clock. That is 04:00 UTC while New York is on daylight saving time and 05:00 UTC while it is on standard time.

Yes, Krillion's daily dive is free. A one-time paid unlock adds the unlimited mode and the archive of past dives, and removes ads across the whole site. Themed packs are also available.

No, there is not a Krillion app yet. The game runs in a web browser at krillion.io. Krillion's FAQ says an app will come eventually.

This page lists the answers from Krillion's own answer sheet. The game also accepts aliases that are not on the sheet and uses generous autocorrect, so a near match may still score. Our checker flags those as close. When a fair answer is missing, Krillion's FAQ says the usual reason is a missed source.

On this page the One in a Krillion sits behind letter tiles on each prompt card. Tap one tile for a single letter, or press "Show answer" for the whole thing. The tier lists stay closed until you open them too.

Yes. This page records every day since October 28, 2026, and the date picker opens them all. Krillion's own archive of past dives is part of its one-time paid unlock.

In Krillion, skip the first answer that comes to mind and the second; those often land in Too Clever. Aim for Rare or deeper on every prompt rather than chasing one gem. Use the three-second preview to pick a direction, then type something you know is real, because a miss scores nothing.
