Krillion Answers FAQ

Are these the highest-scoring answers?

We lead with the highest-scoring answer we've verified for each prompt, with up to two verified alternatives scoring 85 points or more. This isn't the full accepted-answer list. A pick below 100 points may have higher-scoring alternatives.

What do the tiers and depth mean?

Depth describes the top-pick combination, not your progress. Each point is 10 m. Only the top pick for each ready prompt contributes to the total.

Is this the official Krillion site?

No. Krillion Hint is an independent help site. You play the game itself at krillion.io.
