Games Like Noillirk: Crowd-Guessing Games, the Opposite of Krillion
Noillirk turns Krillion inside out. Krillion rewards the rare correct answer that few people would think of; Noillirk, whose name is Krillion spelled backwards, rewards the most common answer instead. It is a free browser game. On Daily, a standard Noillirk climb has seven prompts, with 15 seconds to answer each. Answers higher on the response board earn more points, which become altitude as you climb. If reading the crowd is what you enjoy, four other free daily games build on the same idea in different ways. Top Answer Club gives each country its own survey board and three lives to find the answers on it. Majority asks five short questions, and the aim is to type what you think most other players typed. Daily Herd also asks five, and every 1% of players who matched your answer adds a point. At What Point? asks where people draw a line, such as a price, and scores how close you come to predicting the middle answer. Uncommon Trivia, our own game, sits at the Krillion end instead: the rarer your correct answer, the more it scores. This page is an independent comparison, and we are not connected to Noillirk or to any other game listed here.

Noillirk alternatives: which one suits you?
The alternatives below are free browser games with daily challenges. What changes is where the crowd comes from and how closely you have to match it.
If you like Noillirk's quick prompts and the moment the top answers are revealed, Top Answer Club is the closest in spirit: one survey board per country, three lives, and the chance to help write tomorrow's board by answering its survey question.
For a score based on fellow players' answers, try Majority or Daily Herd, where the crowd is the people who played. At What Point? suits number lovers: instead of naming a thing, you predict where the middle of the crowd draws a line.
How guess-the-crowd games decide the best answer
In ordinary trivia a correct answer is simply correct. In a crowd game the best answer is the one other people give, so every game in this family needs a way to know what people say, and they take two broad approaches.
Games can rank answers using an existing response board or compare the answers submitted by current players. Noillirk on Daily rewards higher-ranked answers on a response board. Top Answer Club builds each day's board from a survey question that players answered the day before.
Majority, Daily Herd and At What Point? compare your answer with what other players gave. At What Point? goes a step further and settles each question at midnight, when the middle of everyone's own answers sets your official score.
Noillirk, Krillion and Uncommon Trivia: opposite ends of one idea
Krillion gives every player the same seven open prompts a day and rewards rare correct answers. Noillirk keeps the open prompts and flips the reward, so the habit that wins one game loses the other: in Noillirk your first thought is usually the one to give, while in Krillion it is usually the one to skip.
Uncommon Trivia is on the Krillion side. Every day it asks seven category questions, such as a chemical element or a country in Europe, with 25 seconds and one answer each. Any correct answer counts, and it scores from 10 points for the most viewed answer to 100 for the least viewed, using the median of each answer's monthly English Wikipedia page views over the last six full months.
So the answer a crowd game is after, such as France for a country in Europe, scores low on Uncommon Trivia, while Moldova or San Marino scores close to the maximum. Playing both kinds of game is a good way to notice which answers everyone shares and which ones only you would think of.
