Five things. Four of them have a lot in common. One lives somewhere else entirely.
Each puzzle shows five names and one measure such as population or top speed. The numbers stay hidden. Tap the one you think sits far from the rest. Then the bars come out and you see how far.
A falcon is a bird and still outruns every land animal on the list. China covers five time zones of land and keeps one clock. Almonds are mostly almonds and celery is mostly water. We like the small jolt when a number turns out to be a different size than it felt. This game is built around that jolt.
A set is five puzzles and they get harder as you go. The first odd one might be forty times the others. The last might be under twice and need a second look at the list. The other four always sit close together so there is one right answer.

Outlier is a free daily number game from Minor Works. Each puzzle shows five things that share one measure such as population, top speed or height. Four are close together and one is far away.
Read the measure, then tap the one you think is the outlier. The numbers stay hidden until you pick. Then the bars appear and you see how far off the odd one was.
Five. They get harder as you go. A new set arrives every day and everyone gets the same five.
