How to play Krillion
Learn how to play the fan-made Krillion edition on Day Guessing: game controls, prompts, result sharing, practice mode and loading help.
Choose the edition before comparing scores
To play Krillion on this site, open the daily game, press Play Krillion, read the prompt and type an answer in the game's field. Use the game's Dive button to submit it. Our player uses Allen's independent fan-made edition from krillion.cc, not the original krillion.io release. Questions, modes and saved results can differ between those services.
This guide is an operating guide to our own game room. It does not publish today's answers, claim an official scoring shortcut or assume that a prompt from another version appears here. If a friend has a different daily question, check the edition first rather than assuming either game is broken.
Know which controls belong to which page
| Control | Where it appears | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Play Krillion | On our cover | Requests the external daily player |
| Play Krillion Unlimited | On our Unlimited cover | Requests the repeat-play mode |
| Dive, Pass and other game controls | Inside the game frame | Operate the provider's current round |
| Fullscreen | Under our player | Expands the player, with a full-window fallback |
| Share | Under our player | Shares this page's address, not a personal score |
| Post comment | In our discussion | Sends a plain-text comment for review |
Click the right layer before typing. A browser page and an embedded game have separate focus. On a computer, select the game's input field; on a phone, tap the same field and use the keyboard that appears. Pressing a shortcut while the surrounding page has focus may operate the browser instead of submitting an answer.
Read the prompt before the timer matters
The fan-made edition presents seven open prompts, with 25 seconds per prompt. You supply a possible answer rather than selecting a multiple-choice option. The provider checks whether it recognizes that answer and assigns points based on its own rarity system.
Focus on what the question actually asks. A qualifier can narrow an otherwise broad category, so read the whole line before making a choice. An answer connected with a category is not always an example of that category. The on-screen wording and feedback are better guides than a remembered rule from another edition.
Do not rely on scrolling away to pause a round. Our website cannot pause the external game's clock, recover time spent in another tab or force it to accept a response. Read this guide first, then return to the player when you are ready to concentrate on the timed part.
Understand the displayed result
An accepted answer can earn more than a common one when the provider considers it rarer. The provider's published tier names are Plankton, Too Clever, Schooler, Rare, Deep Cut and One in a Krillion. That edition lists 10, 15, 30, 60, 85 and 100 points respectively, and shows depth as ten metres per point. Treat the current in-game result as authoritative if the service changes.
The surrounding website does not calculate those tiers or rewrite a response after submission. If something looks wrong, record the edition, prompt and feedback you saw. A screenshot with private details removed can help the provider investigate, but posting a complaint in our comments does not automatically send a report to the game developer.
Use practice deliberately
Our Krillion Unlimited page selects the provider's random repeat-play mode. It is useful when your goal is to become comfortable with input, timing and recognizing the kind of examples a prompt requests. It is not a way to regenerate today's daily set until you obtain a better shared daily result.
Choose a manageable goal for a run. You might practice reading every qualifier or avoid changing display settings after the clock starts. Afterward, note the particular action that helped. We do not recommend refreshing a live round to manipulate an outcome, using an automated answer tool or treating a third-party answer list as a guarantee.
Recover from a loading problem
Before you click Play, there should be a cover and a button, with no external game frame loading behind them. After clicking, our loading animation occupies the same area. If a connection takes too long, a help message offers the same game in a new tab and a player reload option.
A reload can interrupt an unfinished round, so try it only when that tradeoff is acceptable. If the direct game page loads but the frame does not, the browser or network may be treating third-party content differently. Day Guessing cannot bypass a school or workplace restriction. Use an ordinary supported browser and report the exact point of failure instead of repeatedly starting new attempts.
Share and ask for help without spoilers
Our Share button shares a link to the daily or Unlimited page you are viewing. It does not read the text you typed in the external game. To share a result, use the provider's own result control if available. Make the edition and mode clear when comparing with somebody else.
The discussion is for observations about the game room. Leave current answers out unless other players have clearly chosen to see spoilers. Comments use a nickname and plain text, and are reviewed before appearing. For a private site question, email the operator through Contact; for a rights concern, use the Copyright page.
