An unlimited game like Krillion
If you love the daily rare-answer format made popular by Krillion but one dive a day isn’t enough, Outlier is for you. It uses the same kind of challenge (name something in a category and get rewarded for uncommon answers) with no daily limit. Finish a round and start the next one straight away.
Every prompt and every answer list on this site is written from scratch. We currently have 296 prompts across 7 themed packs, from hand-ranked lists like countries and capitals to letter puzzles such as “Name a country with the letter H in its name”.
How scoring works
Each prompt has a list of accepted answers, ranked from the one most people say to the one almost nobody says. Your score depends on where your answer lands:
| Tier | Where your answer sits | Points |
|---|---|---|
| ⬜ Crowd pick | 0–15% of the way from most to least common | 10 |
| 🟦 Familiar | 15–35% of the way from most to least common | 25 |
| 🟩 Uncommon | 35–60% of the way from most to least common | 50 |
| 🟨 Rare | 60–85% of the way from most to least common | 75 |
| 🟧 Outlier | 85–100% of the way from most to least common | 90 |
| 🌟 Supernova | The one hand-picked “gem” answer for each prompt: obscure, but something a few people will actually think of | 100 |
A perfect round is 700 points. Typos and alternate names are accepted: “Holland” counts as the Netherlands and “Lichtenstein” is read as Liechtenstein.
Tips for finding rarer answers
- Say the obvious answer to yourself, then drop it. Your first thought is everyone’s first thought.
- Go sideways. For “Name a bird”, skip eagles and robins and think of a region: seabirds, Australian birds, birds you only see in a museum (the dodo still counts).
- Don’t chase the most obscure thing you know. Very rare answers are often missing from any list. A solid “Rare” beats a blank.
- Watch the clock. With the timer on you have 30 seconds. Turn it off in the menu for a relaxed game.

FAQ
Is this Krillion Unlimited?
Outlier is an independent unlimited game in the same rare-answer genre. It isn’t the official Krillion. Our prompts and answer lists are our own, and there’s no cap on how many rounds you play.
Is it free?
Yes. No account, no paywall, no limit on rounds. Your stats are saved in your own browser.
What does “one in a krillion” mean?
It’s a playful twist on “one in a million”. A krillion isn’t a real number; it just means an answer so rare almost nobody else would think of it. In our game the equivalent is a Supernova.
Can I play only geography, sports or movie prompts?
Yes. Pick a pack in the menu above, or open a pack page such as Geography, Sports or Movies & TV.
Is there a daily version?
Yes. The Outlier Daily gives everyone the same seven prompts each day, resetting at 00:00 UTC.
