Noillirk: How the Reverse Krillion Game Works

Noillirk is “Krillion” spelled backwards — and it plays backwards too. In Krillion, the rarest correct answer wins. In Noillirk, you try to name the answer most people would give. This guide explains how a Noillirk daily works, how its scoring and multipliers add up, how it compares with Krillion, and where you can practise common-answer rounds for free.

Krillion Daily is an unofficial fan site and is not affiliated with Noillirk or Krillion. The rules below describe the version at noillirk.com as it explains itself on its own pages.

Reverse Krillion is our free, unlimited mode: seven prompts, 25 seconds each, and the most obvious answer scores the most.

How to play Noillirk

  1. Read the prompt. Each one names a category, such as “Name a capital city in Europe”.
  2. Type an answer in 30 seconds. Each prompt has a prepared list of accepted answers, so if a guess is turned down, try another while the clock runs.
  3. Aim for the crowd. The more people would give your answer, the more points you score.
  4. Repeat ten times. The daily has ten prompts and takes about three minutes.

Everyone gets the same ten prompts for their local date, and new prompts arrive at midnight. There is nothing to install and no account to make. Most common answer wins by default, though noillirk.com also offers a Rare setting, a party mode and private rooms. After the daily, an answers review shows your band next to the top five answers on each prompt’s board, while the rest of the board stays hidden.

Noillirk scoring and multipliers

Every Noillirk prompt has a board: an estimate, made in advance, of how 100 people would answer. Your answer’s place on that board sets its base points:

BandMeaningBase points
#1 AnswerThe answer most people give100
Runner-upSecond or third on the board75
Top 5In the board’s top five50
Top 10Made the top ten25
Off the BoardRight, but few people said it10

Later questions are worth more. Questions 3 to 5 of a daily count twice, 6 to 8 three times, and 9 and 10 four times. Every 25 points pulls one person from a crowd of 100 to your tile, and the result reads like “You pulled 26 of 100”. Ten #1 Answers pull all 100, which is a perfect daily. On the default “sky climb” view the same points lift a krill on balloons instead: a perfect daily of 2,500 points ends at 14.0 km.

Each run also ends with a title, such as Mind Reader for three or more #1 Answers, or Hit or Miss for two or more #1 Answers alongside three or more Off the Board answers.

The skills are mirror images. Krillion rewards answers that are correct but rarely said; our guide to how to play Krillion covers its depth tiers. Noillirk rewards the first thing that comes to everyone’s mind. Playing both is a good way to learn where the crowd goes — which is exactly what to avoid in the Krillion Daily Dive.

Noillirk tips: how to guess the most common answer

  • Say your first thought. The answer that pops into your head instantly is usually everyone’s. Overthinking pushes you towards Off the Board picks.
  • Pick the most famous member of the category. For a capital city in Europe, Paris is the #1 Answer on the noillirk.com example board, while Skopje is correct but Off the Board.
  • Never run out the clock. Any accepted answer scores at least 10, but a perfect answer still in your head when time runs out scores nothing.
  • Stay sharp to the end. Questions 9 and 10 count four times, so one #1 Answer there is worth as much as four on the first two questions.
  • Avoid the “clever” pick. Krillion players will recognise the trap: the famous oddball answer is what Krillion calls Too Clever, and in Noillirk it usually lands Off the Board.

Why “Noillirk”, and why so many versions?

The name is simply Krillion reversed, which is why searches often pair the two. Since Krillion took off, several sites have published games under the Noillirk name, and some describe slightly different formats, such as seven prompts instead of ten. If you are looking for the version described on this page, check that the rules match: ten prompts, 30 seconds each and a 100-person board. Whichever you play, none of them are part of the official Krillion game at krillion.io.

Prefer to stay in Krillion’s own format? Reverse Krillion flips the scoring of a normal Krillion round, Krillion Unlimited brings the rare-answer game back without a daily cap, and our list of games like Krillion has more daily trivia to try.

Noillirk FAQ

What is Noillirk?

Noillirk is “Krillion” spelled backwards, and the game flips Krillion’s idea: instead of the rarest correct answer, you try to give the answer most people would say. The version at noillirk.com has a daily set of ten prompts with 30 seconds each, plus an unlimited mode.

How is Noillirk scored?

Each accepted answer lands in one of five bands based on its place on the prompt’s board, an estimate of how 100 people would answer: Off the Board 10, Top 10 25, Top 5 50, Runner-up 75 and #1 Answer 100. Later questions count more: questions 3–5 double, 6–8 triple and 9–10 quadruple.

Is Noillirk made by the Krillion developer?

The noillirk.com version says no: its own FAQ states that it shares game and account services with Crowdict and is not affiliated with Krillion. Several other sites also host games under the Noillirk name. Krillion Daily is an unofficial fan site and is not connected to any of them.

Is there a Noillirk unlimited mode?

Yes. The noillirk.com version offers Noillirk Unlimited with 10, 20 or endless prompts. If you want an unlimited common-answer game in Krillion’s seven-prompt format, Reverse Krillion on this site is free with no account.

What is the difference between Noillirk and Reverse Krillion?

Both reward the most common answer. Noillirk uses ten 30-second prompts, a 100-person board and question multipliers. Reverse Krillion keeps Krillion’s format of seven 25-second prompts and flips its depth tiers, so the most obvious answer sinks you to the Abyss for 100 points.
