What’s a good Krillion score?
From Plankton to trench dweller.
Last revised
Krillion grades your daily total with one of five verdicts. By the game’s own lines, 251 or more is where your dive counts as Rare (“Rare. Below the thermocline. Nice.”), and 450 or more earns the top verdict: “One in a krillion. Trench dweller. Absurd.” The maximum is 700 points, a 7,000 m dive.
Krillion doesn’t publish other players’ scores, and neither can we, so the fairest way to judge a score is against those verdicts.
Every Krillion score verdict
| Score | Depth | Verdict | One way to get there |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0–150 | 0–1,500 m | “Plankton. Plenty of ocean left down there.” | 7 Plankton = 70 |
| 151–250 | 1,510–2,500 m | “Schooler. Swimming with the school.” | 7 Schooler = 210 |
| 251–350 | 2,510–3,500 m | “Rare. Below the thermocline. Nice.” | 3 Rare + 4 Schooler = 300 |
| 351–449 | 3,510–4,490 m | “Deep cut. Seriously deep dive.” | 7 Rare = 420 |
| 450+ | 4,500–7,000 m | “One in a krillion. Trench dweller. Absurd.” | 2 gems + 5 Rare = 500 |
The verdicts are quoted from the game. The examples are just one of many ways to reach each range.
What the numbers mean
- Every point is 10 metres. A score of 300 is a 3,000 m dive; the trench floor is 7,000 m.
- Seven Rare answers still fall short of the top verdict. They make 420, which is a Deep cut dive. With Rare answers everywhere else, reaching 450 takes at least one gem or two Deep Cuts.
- A miss costs more than a weak answer. A prompt with no accepted answer scores 0, while even Plankton scores 10. A safe answer always beats a blank.
