1 Name something you can see in the sky (no living or manmade things)
Show hint 1
Living things and manmade objects were ruled out after the prompt was clarified, so birds, planes and satellites do not count. Specific kinds may be named separately.
Show hint 2
Weather and naked-eye astronomy beyond Sun, Moon and stars: planets, eclipses, and named constellations.
Hint 3 · one rare answer
A deep pick: STEVE, the purple ribbon of night-sky light named after a hedge in Over the Hedge.

Rarity is our estimate (estimated), not Krillion's score. Krillion accepts many more correct answers than any list.
Rare-answer idea: Sun, Moon and stars are the crowd. Krillion changed this prompt at 2:30 a.m. ET to exclude living and manmade things and to let specific types count separately. A named sky effect such as a sun dog or STEVE is the deep end.
2 Name a material or product that comes from animals (excluding meat and dairy)
Show hint 1
Meat and dairy are out. Eggs are in. The item has to come from an animal, not just be used by one.
Show hint 2
Fibers, waxes, shells and gland products are named far less than wool, leather and honey.
Hint 3 · one rare answer
A deep pick: sea silk, the rare thread spun from the pen shell.

- Wool
- Silk
- Leather
- Honey
- Eggs
- Feathers
Less common (8)
- Beeswax

Rare (8)

Deep cuts (rarest we found) (6)
- Sea silk
- Isinglass
- Tallow
- Guano
- Musk
- Venom
Rarity is our estimate (estimated), not Krillion's score. Krillion accepts many more correct answers than any list.
Rare-answer idea: Wool, leather and honey are the crowd. Eggs count; milk and cheese do not. A material you could name from a label, such as lanolin or isinglass, sinks further than another farm animal.
3 Name a vegetable smaller than an onion (culinary definition of “vegetable”)
Show hint 1
Use the kitchen meaning, so a tomato can count, and the whole thing has to be smaller than a typical onion.
Show hint 2
Chilies, sprouts and named mushrooms are rarer than garlic, peas and radishes.
Hint 3 · one rare answer
A deep pick: a tomberry, the very small tomato bred to be bite-size.
Show answers (spoilers)
Most players say these (6)
- Garlic
- Peas
- Radish
- Mushroom
- Asparagus
- Green bean
Less common (8)
- Jalapeño
- Olive
- Brussels sprouts
- Baby carrot
- Edamame
- Scallion
- Shallot
- Cherry tomato
Rare (8)
- Okra
- Habanero
- Water chestnut
- Grape tomato
- Pepperoncini
- Button mushroom
- Adzuki bean
- Chives
Deep cuts (rarest we found) (6)
- Tomberry
- Banana shallot
- Puy lentil
- Squash blossom
- Yellow lentil
- Rooster spur pepper
Rarity is our estimate (estimated), not Krillion's score. Krillion accepts many more correct answers than any list.
Rare-answer idea: Garlic and peas are the obvious small vegetables. A whole pumpkin fails the size test even though it is a culinary vegetable. A named small cultivar, such as a tomberry or a Puy lentil, is the deep end.
4 Name a TV game show
Show hint 1
It has to be a show where contestants play a game, not a sport broadcast or a reality series with no game.
Show hint 2
Imported and older panel shows are named far less than Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune.
Hint 3 · one rare answer
A deep pick: Dotto, a 1950s quiz show taken off the air in the quiz-show scandals.
Show answers (spoilers)
Most players say these (6)
- Jeopardy!
- Wheel of Fortune
- Family Feud
- The Price Is Right
- Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?
- Deal or No Deal
Less common (8)
- Double Dare
- Survivor
- Big Brother
- Taskmaster
- Wipeout
- Name That Tune
- Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?
- The Traitors
Rare (8)
- Pointless
- The Chase
- Only Connect
- Cash Cab
- Supermarket Sweep
- Press Your Luck
- Card Sharks
- The 1% Club
Deep cuts (rarest we found) (6)
- Dotto
- Hollywood Squares
- Match Game
- You Don't Know Jack
- Floor Is Lava
- @midnight
Rarity is our estimate (estimated), not Krillion's score. Krillion accepts many more correct answers than any list.
Rare-answer idea: Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune are the crowd. A British panel show such as Pointless or Only Connect, or a scandal-era quiz such as Dotto, is rarer. Reality shows are a boundary: only name one if contestants are clearly playing a game.
5 Name a dance move (named moves)
Show hint 1
It has to be a named move, not a whole dance style you cannot point to. The Moonwalk counts; “hip hop” does not.
Show hint 2
Line-dance steps and breaking moves are named far less than the floss and the dab.
Hint 3 · one rare answer
A deep pick: the Big Apple, the 1930s swing dance the song later borrowed.
Show answers (spoilers)
Most players say these (6)
- Moonwalk
- Floss
- Dab
- The Robot
- The Worm
- Twerk
Less common (8)
- Electric Slide
- Cupid Shuffle
- Macarena
- The Twist
- Griddy
- The Dougie
- Running man
- Orange Justice
Rare (8)
- YMCA
- WAP
- Renegade
- Cabbage Patch
- Windmill
- Headspin
- Shuffle
- Perreo
Deep cuts (rarest we found) (6)
- Big Apple
- The Safety Dance
- Jerk
- Flare
- Achy Breaky Heart
- Shuffle ball change
Rarity is our estimate (estimated), not Krillion's score. Krillion accepts many more correct answers than any list.
Rare-answer idea: The floss, the dab and the moonwalk are the crowd. A named step from a line dance or from breaking, rather than the name of a song, is the safer rare answer. The Big Apple is both a dance and easy to confuse with the city.
6 Name a type of injury (like a sprain, not a sprained ankle)
Show hint 1
Name the kind of injury, not the body part. Sprain counts; sprained ankle does not.
Show hint 2
Medical names for breaks, burns and head injuries are rarer than cut, bruise and burn.
Hint 3 · one rare answer
A deep pick: a contrecoup injury, the brain bruise on the side opposite the blow.
Show answers (spoilers)
Most players say these (6)
- Sprain
- Fracture
- Bruise
- Burn
- Cut
- Strain
Less common (8)
- Concussion
- Dislocation
- Scrape
- Tear
- Wound
- Bleeding
- Sunburn
- Whiplash
Rare (8)
- Hematoma
- Bursitis
- Stress fracture
- Hairline fracture
- Frostbite
- Heatstroke
- Blister
- Greenstick fracture
Deep cuts (rarest we found) (6)
- Contrecoup injury
- Avulsion
- Compound fracture
- Acoustic trauma
- Fat embolism
- Chondromalacia
Rarity is our estimate (estimated), not Krillion's score. Krillion accepts many more correct answers than any list.
Rare-answer idea: Sprain, cut and bruise are the crowd. Keep the body part out of the answer. A pattern of injury, such as greenstick or contrecoup, is specific and still a type rather than a place.
7 Name a chocolate that has caramel in it
Show hint 1
The caramel has to be in the chocolate, not a caramel you dipped yourself. Bars, squares and filled chocolates all count.
Show hint 2
Regional and older bars are named far less than Snickers, Twix and Milky Way.
Hint 3 · one rare answer
A deep pick: a Sky Bar, the old segmented bar with a caramel section.
Show answers (spoilers)
Most players say these (6)
- Snickers
- Twix
- Milky Way
- Rolo
- 100 Grand
- Caramello
Less common (8)
- Cadbury Caramel
- Turtles
- Milk Duds
- Ghirardelli Caramel Squares
- Godiva Salted Caramel
- Take 5
- Baby Ruth
- Galaxy Caramel
Rare (8)
- Curly Wurly
- Oh Henry!
- Lion bar
- Picnic
- Boost
- Toffifee
- Samoas
- Zero bar
Deep cuts (rarest we found) (6)
- Sky Bar
- Albeni
- Cadbury Eclairs
- 5 Star
- Bar One
- Beng-Beng
Rarity is our estimate (estimated), not Krillion's score. Krillion accepts many more correct answers than any list.
Rare-answer idea: Snickers and Twix are the crowd. A bar sold under another name outside the US, such as a Lion bar, Picnic or Boost, is rarer and still caramel-filled. Plain milk chocolate with no caramel does not count.
