Noillirk rules
Guess the answer most people would give. Rank on a board of nine. Do it seven times.
By Noillirk Field Guide | Updated | Independent, unofficial guide
Rules checked against Daily’s how-to-play guide (Jeffery Lu, published 2026-10-21) on 22 October 2026. This page documents the client, not an editorial playthrough.
The clock
In Daily and Classic, each prompt opens with 3 seconds to read, then 15 seconds to answer. The dial turns orange for the last 6 seconds. Submit with Enter or Climb. There is no speed bonus for the same answer. These are the solo rules of Daily’s official client; multiplayer timers can differ.
A rejected answer scores 0 and only consumes the seconds already spent. You may try again before the clock hits zero. Pass is No Lift, also 0, and it does not reveal a better board. In Endless, a timeout or a Pass is a miss and pops a balloon. A rejected-then-accepted answer is not a miss.
What gets rejected
Daily’s how-to-play guide lists common rejects: repeating the prompt, catch-alls such as “stuff”, jokes, nonsense and two answers in one submission. It says the judge allows typos, plurals, slang and modifiers. This describes intended behaviour, not a guarantee that every wording will be accepted.
The official terms say answers outside the game’s lists may use AI judging. A verdict estimates how common an answer is, can be wrong and can change after rejudging. Do not treat a score as a measured survey percentage.
| Rule | Daily (official) | noillirk.com |
|---|---|---|
| Prompts per climb | 7 | 10 |
| Seconds | 15 | 30 |
| Board | 9 answers | Not Daily’s board of 9 |
| Top band | 100, six named bands | Five bands, 2,500-point scale |
| Perfect solo | 700 points, 14 km | 2,500 on that site’s scale |
| Multiplayer capacity | Up to 30 players | Not verified here; a “crowd of 100” is a scoring metaphor |

Questions people actually ask
How do you play Noillirk?
In Daily or Classic, read the prompt, type the answer most people would give, and submit within 15 seconds. Repeat for 7 prompts. Multiplayer can use other lengths and timers.
Is there a speed bonus?
No. Daily says the last second scores the same as the first second for the same answer.
How many answers are on the board?
Nine. First place is alone at 100 points. It is not a top-ten board.
