This record covers the displayed UTC date only. If the UTC date inside your game is different, its daily questions have changed. Scores belong to this prompt set: a name that earns 100 points here may receive a different result in another round.
This set’s mix
Everyday objects, food, countries, devices, mammals, internet services, and saddles
The pool widens dramatically as the dive progresses. The country round contains only 50 recorded answers, while the internet-provider round contains 8,156. A precise category read matters in both, but the best rarity strategy is not the same.

Question 1Everyday objects · 382 answers
Name something sold in stick form (like deodorant)
Hint: Think beyond toiletries: foods, craft materials, cosmetics, and traditional tools can all be sold as sticks.
Top revealed answerMiswakOne in a Krillion
100points
Why it fits
A miswak is a natural tooth-cleaning twig, so the object itself is sold and used in stick form.

BreadsticksSchooler30 pt
ButterPlankton10 pt
Watch for
The answer must commonly be sold as a stick, not merely be long or stick-shaped after it is prepared.
Miswak and spurtle reached the 100-point tier in this revealed set. Deodorant fits, but the example in the prompt makes it an obvious low-scoring choice.
Question 2Food · 1,132 answers
Name a food made by mashing or puréeing (like guacamole)
Hint: Look across dips, fruit preparations, vegetable dishes, and regional foods produced by pounding, mashing, or blending.
Top revealed answerMoretumOne in a Krillion
100points
Why it fits
Moretum is an ancient Roman herb-and-cheese spread prepared by grinding its ingredients together.

Baba ganoushSchooler30 pt
ApplesaucePlankton10 pt
Watch for
Choose a finished food whose preparation genuinely involves mashing or puréeing; a dish merely served with a mashed ingredient may not qualify.
The accepted pool is very large. A familiar answer is safer to spell, while regional preparations create more high-scoring possibilities.
Question 3Countries · 50 answers
Name a country with the letter D in its name (like Canada)
Hint: Check the complete English country name. Multi-word Caribbean and Pacific states offer less obvious choices.
Top revealed answerSaint Kitts and NevisOne in a Krillion
100points
Why it fits
The conjunction “and” supplies the required letter while the full sovereign-state name remains a clean match.

Watch for
Use a country rather than a city, territory, dependency, continent, or historical state, and enter the standard English name.
There are only 50 recorded answers for this prompt, so the category boundary is much tighter than the food or mammal rounds.
Question 4Devices · 337 answers
Name a device that blows air
Hint: Consider household appliances, industrial machinery, entertainment equipment, and devices used to move or direct air.
Top revealed answerWinnowing machineOne in a Krillion
100points
Why it fits
A winnowing machine uses a directed airflow to separate lighter chaff from grain.

AccordionRare60 pt
Air compressorSchooler30 pt
FanPlankton10 pt
Watch for
The named object should function as a device and actively expel or direct air, rather than merely contain air or move because of wind.
Fan and hair dryer are easy fallbacks, but the revealed list rewards specialized equipment much more heavily.
Question 5Mammals · 6,514 answers
Name a mammal smaller than a house cat
Hint: Small bats, rodents, shrews, mustelids, and compact marsupials make this the broadest answer pool of the day.
Top revealed answerHero shrewOne in a Krillion
100points
Why it fits
The hero shrew is a small Central African mammal known for its unusually reinforced spine.

BatPlankton10 pt
Watch for
Use a mammal whose typical adult size is below that of a domestic cat; baby forms of normally larger species are weak choices.
With 6,514 recorded answers, this round offers the most room to trade familiarity for rarity without leaving the category.
Question 6Internet services · 8,156 answers
Name an internet service provider
Hint: Recall regional broadband companies, former dial-up brands, mobile carriers, and providers outside your home country.
Top revealed answerThe World (ISP)One in a Krillion
100points
Why it fits
The World began offering dial-up internet access to the public from Brookline, Massachusetts, in 1989.

AOLSchooler30 pt
AT&TPlankton10 pt
Watch for
Name a company that actually provides internet access, not a search engine, browser, website, router brand, or streaming service.
This is the day’s largest pool. Regional and discontinued providers dominate the higher tiers, while major national brands remain reliable low-tier answers.
Question 7Things with saddles · 146 answers
Name something that has a saddle
Hint: A saddle may be a seat, a structural shape, a named body feature, or a component on an instrument or machine.
Top revealed answerDandy horseOne in a Krillion
100points
Why it fits
The dandy horse was an early two-wheeled running machine with a saddle but no pedals.

EarthwormOne in a Krillion100 pt
Aerial tramwayDeep Cut85 pt
ATVRare60 pt
CamelSchooler30 pt
BicyclePlankton10 pt
Watch for
The connection must use the word saddle in a recognized sense. A vague resemblance to a seat or curve is not enough.
Earthworm is accepted because its clitellum is commonly called a saddle. That broader meaning is what makes the final round less obvious than it first appears.
How to choose between revealed answers
A 100-point answer is valuable only when you can recall and spell it before the timer expires. Keep one familiar lower-tier answer ready, then move to a rarer option only when the category fit is clear.
Read every qualifier before choosing an answer.
Use the displayed 10-point or 30-point option as a dependable fallback.
Attempt a Deep Cut or One in a Krillion pick only when you know its standard spelling.
Compare this record’s date with the UTC date inside the game; the Daily Dive changes at 00:00 UTC.
The Daily Dive follows the UTC calendar. Compare the date inside the game with this record; your device’s local date can differ around the reset.
02
Read the pool size
A small answer pool leaves fewer safe alternatives. A large pool gives you more room to search for a specific uncommon choice.
03
Keep a fallback
Memorize one conventional answer for each prompt before attempting a difficult name from the 85- or 100-point tier.
04
Treat scores as dated
Every score belongs to this question and this revealed Daily Dive. Do not carry it into an unrelated prompt or future set.
Krillion daily answer questions
Are these today’s Krillion answers?
These answers cover October 20, 2026 (UTC). They apply to today’s Daily Dive only if its in-game UTC date matches. The daily set changes at 00:00 UTC, which may differ from midnight where you live.
Does every accepted answer score 100 points?
No. The revealed answers span six rarity tiers. Familiar responses can score 10 or 30 points, while the least common recorded choices can reach 85 or 100.
Why are there several correct answers?
Krillion uses open-answer prompts. Each question accepts a pool of names that satisfy the wording, so there is rarely one unique solution.
Will these scores stay the same forever?
The scores shown here belong to the dated reveal for Daily Dive #97. Treat them as a record of this set rather than a universal value for the answer.
What if a factually correct entry is rejected?
The game checks its recorded answer pool and spelling rules. Use another displayed option while the timer remains instead of spending the round arguing with the category.
