RARITY / THE TOP TIER
One in a Krillion
A top-tier answer, and a name with more than one meaning.
GUIDE UPDATED / 4 NOVEMBER 2026
What does One in a Krillion mean in the game?
It is the name of the top answer tier in Krillion. In the recorded Daily Dive examples below, it awards 100 points. The official Daily Dive instructions convert each point to ten metres, so 100 points correspond to 1,000 metres for that round. A seven-round total is a separate calculation; see our scoring guide.
Two examples from a recorded Daily Dive
On 4 November 2026, the official game’s published result data included these entries. Each score belongs to the specific prompt and date; it is not a promise for a different prompt.
- For a question about material mined from the ground, Coprolite was recorded as One in a Krillion, 100 points.
- For a question about a sea animal that is neither fish nor bird, Hoff crab was recorded in the same tier, also 100 points.

Is the top answer always the rarest?
No. The creator explains that the selection also considers how satisfying an answer is to find. Familiarity is assessed differently by question, so an obscure-sounding answer is not guaranteed the top tier or even acceptance. See the creator’s FAQ for the method and its limitations, or read our strategy guide for your next dive.
Our independent practice uses a separate finite bank and preset points; those points cannot predict an official result.
Why does the phrase sound familiar?
“One in a krillion” is also a krill pun heard in Happy Feet Two, and other games use the same phrase. The phrase alone does not establish the trivia creator’s naming inspiration. This page explains the Krillion trivia tier.
