Save the fish.

Estimate the right order of magnitude. Answer quickly for up to 5 points each, then earn a final bonus for every step left between the fish and chef.

HOW IT WORKS

  1. 01

    Choose the nearest power of ten, from 10-10 to 109.

  2. 02

    Every scale away from the benchmark adds 1 point. Reach 8 points and the chef catches the fish.

  3. 03

    Need a clue? Spend 1 of your 3 pearls and add 1 point.

  4. 04

    Your choice locks after 15 seconds. No selection adds 2 points.

  5. 05

    An exactly correct scale earns 5 speed points at 0.1 seconds, falling steadily to 0 when time runs out. Wrong answers earn no speed points.

EXAMPLE

If the benchmark is 105 and you choose 107, you add 2 points.
