Krillion Answers — September 2026
Daily Dives #76 – #48 · 29 dives · September 1–29, 2026
Every Krillion Daily Dive from September 2026, newest first. Each one shows the same seven prompts the whole world got that day, plus the size of the official answer set for every prompt. A smaller pool means a harder prompt — that's the number worth checking before you replay a date you missed.
Answer sets keep growing after the day ends, so these counts are the latest we have rather than the counts from the night itself. Looking for another month? Browse the full archive, or jump to August 2026 or July 2026.

September 2026
Daily Dive #76 — September 29, 2026
- Name something sold in a tube — 472
- Name a symbol or shape that appears on a national flag (like a star) — 192
- Name a type of chair — 1,017
- Name a standard type of insurance policy (all vehicles count as one type) — 433
- Name a song with over a billion streams on Spotify — 1,364
- Name an animal that can grow longer than 10 feet (3 m), including the tail — 304
- Name a product used to wash or style hair (product types, not brands) — 256
The 192-answer flag-symbol list was the day's thinnest, and the shapes it accepted went well past stars and crescents — an armillary sphere and a tunduk (the crown of a yurt) both paid 100. Chairs at 1,017 was the widest list: ducking stool and sedan chair took the top tier there, while plain chair itself scored Plankton. On the insurance prompt, hole-in-one insurance and twins insurance both hit 100 — exactly the kind of policy nobody thinks is real. Tubes rewarded Kalles Kaviar and space food, billion-stream songs paid Arcade and Snowman, long animals paid bootlace worm and slender giant moray, and hair products paid Bandoline and Macassar oil — two Victorian-era products most players have never heard of.
Daily Dive #75 — September 28, 2026
- Name a superpower Superman has in the comics or movies — 92
- Name a language whose English name ends in -ish — 259
- Name something used to block the sun — 405
- Name a laptop brand — 791
- Name a part of an airplane, inside or out (anything built in or mounted) — 985
- Name a body part people have more than two of (like fingers) — 1,591
- Name an item of formal wear (clothing and shoes, not jewelry) — 742
If you're replaying this set, the prompt that decided most runs was the Superman one at just 92 answers — with a pool that small, the famous powers score low.
Daily Dive #74 — September 27, 2026
- Name a fruit or vegetable that starts with S — 589
- Name a territory, constituent country or autonomous region — 161
- Name a Fire-type Pokémon — 89
- Name a city in Italy (must hold the official città title) — 1,069
- Name a career in finance — 129
- Name a sport that has a goalkeeper — 62
- Name a type of card (like a birthday card or a library card) — 527
If you're replaying this set, the one that decided most runs was the goalkeeper prompt at 62 answers — with a pool that small, the safe guesses score low.
Daily Dive #73 — September 26, 2026
- Name an app that comes preinstalled on an iPhone — 59
- Name a deodorant brand — 723
- Name something with wheels that isn't a vehicle — 337
- Name a shade of red (pinks don't count) — 444
- Name a state or province anywhere in the world (must be officially called a state or province) — 2,320
- Name a real-life melee weapon — 602
- Name a city with a metro system — 482
How this one played. Three pools were wide open — "state or province" at 2,320, "deodorant brand" at 723 and "melee weapon" at 602 — so obvious answers were the safe play there. The pressure sat on "app preinstalled on an iPhone" with just 59 accepted answers, and on "city with a metro system" at 482, where guessing a famous capital was the most common way to score low.
Daily Dive #72 — September 25, 2026
- Name a country with three syllables (English pronunciation) — 86
- Name a country without the letter A in its name — 32
- Name an African country's most-spoken language — 35
- Name a video game that includes Mario — 256
- Name an international airport (must say full name) — 2,026
- Name a garden tool — 167
- Name a stock trading term — 1,501
The small-country prompts carried this set: three syllables at 86, no letter A at 32 and African most-spoken language at 35. "International airport" at 2,026 was the only place a lazy answer was safe.
Daily Dive #71 — September 24, 2026
- Name a US city with over 100,000 people — 349
- Name a country that borders China — 14
- Name a kitchen appliance (something powered) — 151
- Name a villain from a Marvel Cinematic Universe movie — 222
- Name an animal without the letter A in its name (breeds count too) — 9,373
- Name a mobile phone brand — 581
- Name a platform people use to listen to music (apps and services, not devices) — 585
This is the widest single prompt we've logged anywhere in the archive — "an animal without the letter A" accepted 9,373 answers, so there was no wrong move there. The trap was "country that borders China" at just 14, where most players name Russia or India and stop.
Daily Dive #70 — September 23, 2026
- Name a way to prepare eggs — 259
- Name a country whose name starts with A — 11
- Name a celebrity chef — 2,104
- Name a building material — 880
- Name a phone carrier — 3,936
- Name a computer part (accessories don't count) — 293
- Name something sprayed out of a can (pump bottles don't count) — 198
The whole dive hinged on one prompt: "country whose name starts with A" had only 11 accepted answers. Naming Argentina, Australia or Austria there is a coin flip.
Daily Dive #69 — September 22, 2026
- Name a salad dressing — 257
- Name a language named after a country (constituent countries count; for example England → English) — 116
- Name a current top 200 website (by Tranco; named sites and services only) — 114
- Name a search engine — 584
- Name a field of math — 461
- Name a sunglasses brand (has a label line) — 1,382
- Name a facial hair style — 123
Four prompts sat between 114 and 257 answers, so nothing here was free. "Languages named after a country" rewards a second thought — English, French and German are on the list, but so are dozens you wouldn't reach for.
Daily Dive #68 — September 21, 2026
- Name the most widely spoken language of an Asian country — 35
- Name a mammal or reptile that lives in rivers — 479
- Name a city in Japan — 864
- Name a space on a Monopoly board (US/UK) — 62
- Name a chemical element whose name ends in -ium — 79
- Name a part of a smartphone you can see or touch (accessories don't count) — 66
- Name a country with both a U and an S in its name — 21
A tight set all round, and the last prompt was the tightest: only 21 countries carry both a U and an S. Monopoly spaces at 62 and -ium elements at 79 weren't much friendlier.
Daily Dive #67 — September 20, 2026
- Name a type of door — 222
- Name something used to sweeten coffee — 176
- Name a place people keep or store cash — 175
- Name a country with stripes on its flag — 148
- Name a disease that has a vaccine — 202
- Name a boxing weight class — 23
- Name a pattern or print (for example, stripes) — 648
The boxing prompt at 23 answers was the smallest pool of the day — and note the trap: "stripes" works for the flag prompt but the pattern prompt wants the print's name, not the flag.
Daily Dive #66 — September 19, 2026
- Name an area in a school — 445
- Name a national capital city that starts with A or C — 30
- Name a type of milk — 159
- Name a Queen song — 262
- Name a sport that involves catching a ball — 179
- Name a rank in the military — 780
- Name a shade of green — 339
Capital cities starting with A or C at 30 answers was the trap here — most players go straight for a famous capital and land outside the list.
Daily Dive #65 — September 18, 2026
- Name a country that borders India by land or sea — 11
- Name an occupation that involves working with children (the job itself must focus on kids) — 264
- Name an animal that produces its own light — 107
- Name a Michael Jackson song — 487
- Name another English word for a nose (any creature's counts) — 50
- Name a Pixar protagonist (co-leads count) — 109
- Name a type of building used for prayer — 77
Seven neighbours border India and only those seven counted, so "China" and "Pakistan" were the two safe plays at 10 points. The nose prompt at 50 and the prayer building at 77 were the other two that punished the obvious answer.
Daily Dive #64 — September 17, 2026
- Name a current Fortune 500 CEO — 511
- Name a word for a baby animal — 233
- Name a country that has nuclear weapons (constituent countries don't count) — 9
- Name a calisthenics exercise (bodyweight exercises only) — 613
- Name an article of clothing (jewelry, glasses and bags don't count) — 2,276
- Name a social media platform that's still operating — 249
- Name a gas found in Earth's atmosphere — 201
Nine nuclear-armed countries, and that's the whole list — the tightest prompt we've logged this month alongside the "starts with A/P/I" country prompts. Clothing at 2,276 was the opposite: a free 30 points for anyone who wrote down a jacket.
Daily Dive #63 — September 16, 2026
- Name a domesticated animal (kinds of animal, not breeds) — 186
- Name a cat breed (coat patterns don't count) — 135
- Name a Water-type Pokémon — 161
- Name a movie starring Will Smith — 38
- Name a household chore — 226
- Name a country with two syllables (English pronunciation; constituent countries don't count) — 55
- Name a modern country that was partly ruled by the Roman Empire (constituent countries don't count) — 49
Will Smith's filmography only holds 38 counted titles, which is why everyone's first answer scored lowest. The Roman Empire prompt at 49 was nearly as mean — most of the map west of Italy doesn't count.
Daily Dive #62 — September 15, 2026
- Name something you drink out of — 148
- Name a fruit with a core — 31
- Name a leafy green — 169
- Name a film directed by Wes Anderson — 23
- Name something in a first aid kit — 104
- Name a type of diet — 289
- Name a country with an animal on its flag (constituent countries don't count) — 26
The nastiest set of the month so far: only 23 Wes Anderson films counted and just 31 fruits have a core, where even apple and pear scored the bottom tier.
Daily Dive #61 — September 14, 2026
- Name a modern country that Alexander the Great's empire reached — 25
- Name a mammal that lives underground — 860
- Name a legume — 303
- Name a country whose national flag has exactly two colors — 37
- Name an office supply — 335
- Name a movie starring Timothée Chalamet — 25
- Name a New York Times game — 33
Three prompts sat at 25–37 answers, so the obvious answer had nowhere to hide. The underground-mammal list at 860 was the only wide one — and "Wordle" wasn't on the NYT game list at all, which caught most players out.
Daily Dive #60 — September 13, 2026
- Name a Google product — 939
- Name an animal that can top 40 mph (65 km/h) — 120
- Name a grain or cereal crop — 254
- Name a character from Avatar: The Last Airbender (the original series, not Korra) — 180
- Name a country with both a G and an A in its name — 36
- Name a theme park chain — 104
- Name a literary device — 645
Only 36 countries carry both a G and an A, and the list is not the one you'd guess. Google products at 939 was the widest — that one rewarded anyone who thought past Search.
Daily Dive #59 — September 12, 2026
- Name a country whose name starts with I — 9
- Name a delivery service — 1,225
- Name a country in Eastern Europe — 21
- Name a word for a huge number (million or bigger) — 212
- Name a tool you would find in a toolbox — 627
- Name a chemical element lighter than iron — 25
- Name a sport played without a ball — 1,245
Nine countries start with I and 21 count as Eastern Europe, so two prompts here had almost no margin. The huge-number prompt is the fun one: "Krillion" itself was accepted, scored Too Clever at 15 points.
Daily Dive #58 — September 11, 2026
- Name a city with more than 10 million people in its metro area — 158
- Name a sacred text of Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, or Buddhism — 978
- Name a protagonist of a Marvel Cinematic Universe movie — 33
- Name a country whose name starts with P — 10
- Name a part of the human brain — 761
- Name a unit of weight or mass — 344
- Name a Shakespeare protagonist — 74
Only 10 countries start with P, and 33 MCU protagonists counted — two traps dressed up as easy prompts. Sacred texts at 978 was the release valve of the day.
Daily Dive #57 — September 10, 2026
- Name someone with over 100 million Instagram followers — 34
- Name a black and white mammal or bird — 390
- Name a type of skincare product — 337
- Name a video game that has earned over $1 billion — 154
- Name a Roman god or goddess — 342
- Name a golf term — 855
- Name a literary genre — 1,361
Instagram's 100-million club only had 34 counted entries, so the obvious names were the wrong ones. Literary genres at 1,361 and golf terms at 855 were where the points were.
Daily Dive #56 — September 9, 2026
- Name a city in California — 563
- Name an animal with horns or antlers — 783
- Name a Spanish or Portuguese dish — 841
- Name an aquatic mammal — 353
- Name a carnivorous mammal — 1,439
- Name a video game genre — 246
- Name a street suffix (like Street or Avenue) — 547
An unusually forgiving dive — five of the seven pools sat above 350, so safe answers still paid. Video game genres at 246 was the one that thinned out, and street suffixes at 547 is a prompt nobody prepares for.
Daily Dive #55 — September 8, 2026
- Name a city in Canada with over 100,000 people — 76
- Name an animal with a shell — 1,007
- Name a Middle Eastern dish — 841
- Name a Breaking Bad character — 206
- Name a war fought in the 20th century — 1,069
- Name a country that borders Brazil — 10
- Name a mobile game with over 100 million downloads — 446
The Brazil prompt had just 10 accepted answers — the seven neighbours plus France, which counts through French Guiana. Naming Argentina there was the most common way to lose the run. Canada's 100,000-plus cities only ran to 76, so even Halifax scored the lowest tier.
Daily Dive #54 — September 7, 2026
- Name a country where English is an official language — 62
- Name an animal that lives in the Arctic or Antarctica — 687
- Name a dead language — 1,387
- Name a Mario character — 3,147
- Name a country with the letter Y in its name — 29
- Name a sport played with a stick, bat, or club — 166
- Name a type of bicycle — 121
The whole set came down to "country with the letter Y" at 29 answers — a list most players can't finish, while Mario characters at 3,147 was a free 30 points.
Daily Dive #53 — September 6, 2026
- Name a luxury watch brand — 507
- Name a mammal with stripes — 218
- Name a style or cut of jeans — 108
- Name a Disney song — 1,766
- Name a mode of transportation — 811
- Name a type of home or dwelling — 378
- Name a country whose name starts with T — 12
Only 12 countries start with T — the thinnest pool of the week — and note that even Thailand only scored Plankton at 10 points. Disney songs at 1,766 was the release valve.
Daily Dive #52 — September 5, 2026
- Name a national capital city that starts with B — 28
- Name a mammal or reptile that lives in the desert — 288
- Name a type of cookie (brands don't count) — 374
- Name a Seinfeld character — 361
- Name a type of engineering — 170
- Name a unit of distance — 285
- Name a medical instrument — 323
No pool ran past 374, so this was the most evenly brutal day of the month: capitals starting with B offered just 28 entries, and the usual answers were cheap.
Daily Dive #51 — September 4, 2026
- Name a European country — 55
- Name a living mammal native to Africa — 225
- Name an American fast food chain — 891
- Name a Taylor Swift song — 384
- Name a country that celebrates an independence day — 166
- Name a game in Wii Sports or Wii Sports Resort — 43
- Name a palindrome that's a real English dictionary word — 239
Wii Sports games at 43 and European countries at 55 were the two that punished lazy guesses; fast food chains at 891 was where the points sat.
Daily Dive #50 — September 3, 2026
- Name a capital city in the Americas — 59
- Name an animal known for camouflage — 166
- Name a country that fought in World War II — 77
- Name a language that is an official language of a European country — 149
- Name an astronaut or cosmonaut — 982
- Name a block in Minecraft — 775
- Name a country smaller than Belgium (by area) — 62
Three Geography prompts sat between 59 and 77 answers, so the map-heavy half of this dive had almost no margin; astronauts and Minecraft blocks at 982 and 775 were the reliable pair.
Daily Dive #49 — September 2, 2026
- Name a type of gun (types and models both count) — 604
- Name a creature you might find in a tide pool — 135
- Name an HBO show — 718
- Name a DreamWorks animated character — 622
- Name a country that was an ally of the Soviet Union during the Cold War — 38
- Name an athlete with multiple Olympic gold medals — 1,071
- Name a chess term — 467
Cold War allies at 38 was the trap, and tide-pool creatures at 135 wasn't far behind — most players name a crab and stop. Olympic medallists at 1,071 covered the damage.
Daily Dive #48 — September 1, 2026
- Name a country in Oceania — 18
- Name an animal whose name starts with B (breeds count too) — 2,504
- Name a deep fried food — 584
- Name a Transformers character — 1,032
- Name a member of the Beatles — 10
- Name a country that has territories or dependencies — 35
- Name an American airline (U.S.-based, past or present) — 2,170
September opened with the smallest pool we've logged: a Beatles member, just 10 answers — and John and Paul themselves scored Plankton at 10 points. Oceania at 18 and territory-holding countries at 35 were the other two traps; B-animals and U.S. airlines were free.
