Every question asks for a real number nobody knows offhand. No searching: break it into pieces you can picture, multiply, and make your best guess.
Three questions a day, one guess each. You score how many times off you were, too high or too low: nail it and it’s 1×, half or double is 2×. Your day’s score is the geometric mean of the three, so lower is better. New questions at 00:00 UTC.
Questions keep coming. Land within 10× of the answer, high or low, to keep going. Your score is how many you survive in a row.
1,245, 12k, 3.5 million, 2bn and4e9 all work. You can type the sum itself, like 8e9 × 0.3 ÷ 4, or open the calculator keys.
