How to play this prompt
Strategy notes specific to “Name an animal that lives in a burrow” — not generic advice.
The zoo favorites are all Plankton. Rare answers live in the less-photographed corners of the animal kingdom.
Your edge here is Naked mole-rat: specific, valid, and far from the crowd's first thought. If it feels slightly too obscure to say out loud, that's usually the sign it's worth real points. Bank Prairie dog as your backup — same logic, different answer.
Rabbit feels safe because it's obviously right. That's precisely why it's worth the least — safety is crowded. Mole is the same kind of comfortable, low-scoring pick.
Meerkat and Gopher are the honest middle of this prompt — answers most players know but few type first. If your instinct answer feels too easy, reach for this layer instead of the obvious.
Rare answers travel in packs: if Wombat comes to mind, Armadillo and Prairie dog are usually one thought away. Train yourself to pull the whole cluster, not just the first name that surfaces.
Rated 2/5 difficulty — 12 banked answers give you room to match, so the real skill is picking the rare ones, not just valid ones.
