How to play Crowdict

Ten questions, plenty of possible answers. Pick your scoring style, make a guess and see how your thinking compares.

One question. Many ways to think.

Start with a question

Every Crowdict Daily gives everyone the same ten questions on the same date. Each asks you to name something in a category, such as a bird, a food or a city. You have 30 seconds to type an answer and submit it.

There can be many valid answers. If a guess is not accepted, you can try another while time remains. You can also pass; a pass or timeout scores zero for that question.

Choose Crowd or Rare

Crowd

Think of the answer other people are most likely to give. More common valid answers earn more points.

Rare

Look for a valid answer fewer people would think of. The rarer the answer, the more it can earn.

Both Daily modes use the same questions, but keep their scores and leaderboards separate. You choose the mode before playing; a party host chooses it in the room.

See how your answer scores

After each answer, the reveal shows its scoring band and points. Answer popularity is based on prepared estimates for each question, not a live poll of players. Later questions carry higher multipliers, so every round matters.

What if my answer isn’t accepted?

Crowdict recognises many common variants and small spelling differences, but its answer lists are not complete. Try another answer before time runs out. If a valid answer is missing, you can suggest it for review.
