How a dive works
Peakle is a free daily trivia game. Every day brings a new list, like the worlds of the solar system by diameter or the US states by area. Name an answer and your diver sinks one stop deeper. Each answer has to beat the one before it. Name a smaller one and you swim back to the surface.
Bigger answers sit deeper, and the biggest answer on the list is the ocean floor. Jump straight to it and the dive is over after one stop, so start small. Your score is the number of stops you make, and every stop shows a real figure from a public source, so you learn something even when the dive ends early.
From stop 6 on, some stops bring a sea creature card: a real animal that lives at that depth, from sunlit reef fish to trench amphipods. Keep them in your logbook. A new dive starts at midnight your time, and the share card never shows the answers.
Questions
Is Peakle free?
Yes. Today's dive and yesterday's dive are always free, with no account. An optional Peakle Pass ($4.90, one payment) opens every older dive and the practice shelf.
When does a new dive come out?
At midnight in your own time zone. Everyone gets the same list on the same date, so you can compare dives with friends.
Does it matter what I name first?
A lot. Each answer has to beat the one before it, and bigger answers sit deeper. Open with the biggest answer and you hit the ocean floor after one stop. Start small and there is room for many stops.
How do the creature cards work?
The first five stops are the way down. From stop 6 on, some stops bring a sea creature that really lives at that depth, and the deeper the stop, the rarer the creatures. Not every stop brings a card. Reach the ocean floor after stop 5 and that card is always shiny.
Where do the numbers come from?
From official and public sources such as NASA and the US Census Bureau. Every list names its sources under the full ranking, and we note how each figure was measured.
Can I share my score without spoilers?
Yes. The share card and text show your stops and the creatures you met, never the answers or their numbers, so friends can still play.
