Games like Krillion: how Sprintile compares
Krillion is a daily trivia game: seven prompts, 25 seconds to name one thing for each, and rarer answers score more. Sprintile is a word puzzle with the same daily ritual: one puzzle, the same for everyone, once a day. The word is hidden and there’s no timer on your guesses. Fewest guesses wins; the clock breaks ties.
