What you'll find here
Krillion gives everyone the same seven prompts each day, and the score rewards answers that few other players think of. That design makes a plain answer key less useful than usual. Finding a valid answer is rarely the hard part; knowing which answers sit in the deep tiers is. So every day page on this site lists all six tiers for each prompt, and you can see exactly where the line between an obvious answer and a rare one falls.
The list above only shows the rarest answer we recorded for each prompt. The full day page adds the complete tier breakdown, three graded hints per prompt and a short note on what made the rare picks rare.
Play first, check after
The daily puzzle only feels like a dive if you go in blind. A routine that works: play your seven prompts, then come back here and compare. Look for prompts where your answer landed a tier or two short and ask what pushed the other answers deeper. Usually it is a narrower subcategory, an older or regional name, or something that is famous inside one field and unknown outside it. That habit lifts your scores faster than memorising lists, because the prompts change every day and a list only helps once.
Stuck halfway through? Use the hints page rather than the answer table. Each prompt gets three hints that become more specific step by step, and the answers stay folded away until you open them yourself.
How each day's answers are put together
Each dated page names its sources and verification method. Current entries are checked against the game's public answer reveal; historical entries are cross-checked between dated public archives. Answer spellings and scores are preserved from those lists. We show selected examples rather than every accepted entry, and our hints and explanations are editorial additions. The game remains the final word on acceptance. You can compare the sources on each dated page in the archive.
Guides worth reading once
New to the game? The wiki covers the modes, the menu and how answer matching works. The scoring guide walks through all six tiers with a worked example of a full seven-prompt dive. Fans of place names should read the geography strategy page, and if you play the endless mode, the unlimited guide explains how it differs from the daily puzzle and how to use it as practice.
