How to play this prompt
Strategy notes specific to “Name a type of dinosaur” — not generic advice.
Science prompts reward precision — the vague version of your answer is common, the exact term is rare.
Your edge here is Parasaurolophus: 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 Spinosaurus as your backup — same logic, different answer.
Tyrannosaurus rex feels safe because it's obviously right. That's precisely why it's worth the least — safety is crowded. Velociraptor is the same kind of comfortable, low-scoring pick.
Brachiosaurus and Pterodactyl 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 Allosaurus comes to mind, Diplodocus and Spinosaurus are usually one thought away. Train yourself to pull the whole cluster, not just the first name that surfaces.
Rated 4/5 difficulty — only 12 banked answers, so matching the bank is genuinely hard. Precision matters more than speed here.
