Krillion, or krillion.io is a web-based, .io trivia game. Each game consists of 7 prompts, or trivia questions, players have 25 seconds to answer each question. The more obscure or rare the answer, the higher the score. A new set of questions are available daily.

Game theme

[edit]

Krillion has an oceanic theme. The name of Krillion is a portmanteau of 'krill' and 'million'. Each day's game is called a 'daily dive', the krill character sinks into the ocean after each answer, its depth dependent on the score. The highest possible score of an answer, 100 points (or -1000 meters), is called 'one in a krillion'.

Gameplay

[edit]

Players must answer 7 prompts, they are given 25 seconds for each. The scoring is based on a preset list of accepted answers. There are 7 obtainable scores for each prompt:

Points Name Notes
0 / (Nothing Landed) When no accepted answer is submitted after the 25-second time limit.
10 Plankton
15 Too Clever Not obtainable for most prompts, reserved for the ''obscure' pick that isn’t actually that obscure'.[1]
30 Schooler
60 Rare
85 Deep Cut
100 (One in a) Krillion Usually only for one answer, sometimes two.

The rarity of answers is sometimes sorted algorithmically during the creation of the answer list. However, the 'Krillion' answer (100 points) is chosen not solely by rarity:[1]

Past a certain depth, rarity gets hard to disambiguate, so the gem is also picked for fun factor: the answer that’s most satisfying to land on. That might sound like it defeats the point, but some of the answers collected are so obscure that maybe one of you would ever type them. The gem should be something at least a few of you actually get.

Krillion has 'themed packs', extra available levels in which gameplay is identical except prompts revolve around a specific theme. There are 5 themes, namely: 'Words & Language (English)', 'At the Movies', 'Sports', 'Geography' and 'Music' (upcoming).

The web game is operated by one person.[2] Its developer has planned a multiplayer version of the game, as well as a party game of similar premise.[1]
