FAQ
How Rarest Answer works: daily rounds, localStorage stats, Wikidata and Wikipedia data, and no affiliation with Krillion.
What is Rarest Answer?
Rarest Answer is a free trivia game you play in the browser. A prompt asks you to name something that fits. Every accepted answer is correct, and a rarer correct answer scores more.
How does a daily round work?
A daily round is seven prompts. Everyone playing that day gets the same seven. The set resets at local midnight. Unlimited play is a separate mode at /unlimited/. A single category is at /trivia/<category>/ for geography, animals, food, sports, screen, music, science, and history. You can turn the timer off. Spotlight doubles the points for one prompt, once per round. The rule card is /guides/how-to-play-rarest-answer/.
What are the score tiers?
Six tiers, from most common to rarest: Common 5, Familiar 10, Uncommon 20, Rare 40, Epic 70, Legendary 100. Tier 6 is the rarest. A guess that is not on the prompt's list scores nothing for that prompt. These tier names belong to this game.
Do I need an account, and where are my stats?
There is no account. Streak and round stats stay in localStorage on this device. Clearing site data clears them, and another browser does not have them. The site also stores a theme choice, the cookie-consent choice, dismissed-banner flags, and a per-page helpfulness flag in localStorage. None of that is an account.
Where do the answers come from?
Prompt lists are compiled from Wikidata (CC0) and Wikipedia or Wiktionary pageview counts. An answer is ranked only against the other answers to the same prompt. A real name can be missing when that public data does not include it. The index of prompts is /rarest-answers/. One prompt is /answers/<slug>/.
Is Rarest Answer affiliated with Krillion or the other games on this site?
Rarest Answer is an independent daily trivia game. Pages about other games are unofficial and are not affiliated with those games. Krillion and every other game named on the game and guide pages is a separate product. This site is not affiliated with those games, their creators, or Roblox.
Are there ads, analytics, or comments?
The game is free to play. Google Analytics and Google AdSense load only after you accept the cookie banner, and only when their environment variables are set. Adsterra units follow the same consent gate and the same empty-means-off rule. Cloudflare Web Analytics is cookieless and loads only when its token is set, without waiting for the banner. VibeCafé loads only when both of its variables are set, and it also does not wait for the banner. giscus comments load only when the giscus variables are set. The repository ships those identifiers blank. Details are on /privacy-policy/.
