Hints, then the answer table

The hint page and the answer page are both for the DleBox version. Neither one is a key for krillion.io. If you are stuck on their game, their site is the place that can help. We do not reconstruct it.

Hints are three layers. The first is a category nudge, visible when you arrive. The second is the first letter of one featured answer, inside a disclosure you open on purpose. The third is that featured name, also closed until you open it. Other names still score. The featured name is an example, often an obscure one, not the only accepted answer.

The answer table lists the names on our list for each of the day's seven prompts, with rarity and points. It is above the fold on that page so you do not scroll for the fact you came for. A countdown sits with it because the table changes at midnight in New York. Past dates have their own URLs for fourteen days. Today is always the live page, not a second dated URL.

Using the table in the middle of a daily round will tell you the scores. That is what it is for. It will not improve a guess you have not thought of if you refuse to look, and it will not apologize if you wanted to stay unspoiled. The hint page is the slower option. The play page is the option with no names on it until you submit one.

Theme packs do not have their own answer archive. The table is for the mixed daily. A practice round's private rematch is not archived either. If a name failed in practice, the reason is the same as on the daily: it is not on the list for that prompt.

From here you can open today's hints. The Krillion directory page is the longer guide to the original game and to ours.

Open hints when you want one step. Open the answer table when you want the set. The heading and the table follow the New York date in the browser, including a tab left open past midnight. The title in the HTML file, and the sitemap, move when the site is built. Archive pages for the next 120 days are generated with that build, so a date that becomes yesterday already has a URL. The list on the page shows only the past 14.

Ads are not part of this hint page yet. The plan for them, if they arrive, is this page and not the homepage or the directory. Until that exists, the disclosures are only the three layers. Nothing flashes a second answer from krillion.io, because we do not have it. The layers stay in order.

Opening a layer does not change the score. The play page does not know that you looked. The first letter belongs to one featured answer, often an obscure one, not to every name that would have scored. Neptune can be the featured planet while Earth still counts for 10. The table is where the rest of the bands are written down.

Today stays on one URL. We do not also file today under a dated path. Past dates keep their own paths for fourteen days on the list. Guessing a future date can open a page that was generated ahead, and that page is the set for that date, not a preview we promote. The hint ladder for a theme pack does not exist. Geography, NBA, Pokémon, and soccer have no separate hint archive.
