For a specific friend, host a Private · Code Only room and share its current code. For a public opponent, select 1V1 under Table size, then Quick Play for unrated matchmaking. Rated is a separate competitive option.
Choose your opponent first
- A particular friend: use a private room and its invitation. Both players should confirm the same code and distinct names before the host starts.
- A public opponent: select 1V1 in the lobby and then choose a matchmaking option.
Find the 1V1 table
The Party lobby exposes four table-size choices: 1V1, 3S, 4–6 and 8–10. Choose 1V1 before pressing a matchmaking button. A daily solo puzzle does not become a versus match by sharing its URL.
Choose rated or casual play
The Rated button describes matching near your rating and indicates that your rating can move. Quick Play is described as unrated. This tells you which button affects competitive progress; it does not guarantee a particular opponent or wait time.
- Open krillion.io/party.
- Enter your display name.
- Select 1V1.
- Choose Quick Play for an unrated match or Rated for rating-based matchmaking.
Play against a specific friend
The room-code section is separate from the matchmaking controls. If a friend is already hosting, ask them for the active code and join through that field. Confirm the room capacity in the lobby; selecting 1V1 for matchmaking is not evidence that every hosted room inherits that size.
What our public Quick Play test verified
On October 29, 2026, selecting 1V1 and Quick Play led to a table labelled UNRATED 1V1 with two players. We submitted an answer and observed the other player take a turn. We did not test Rated matchmaking, exact rating changes or tie handling. We did not complete that public game to a result screen. This limited test does not establish typical wait time or guarantee a particular opponent.
A private two-player check
On October 27, 2026, we created a private room and joined it from two separate browser sessions. The ready count changed from one to two and the host could start. One player entered Joker for a Batman-villain category; the game displayed the joker and passed the turn. The round later reached a winner screen, and both players left. This verifies this private-room flow, not public matchmaking quality or every answer rule.
Need a specific friend instead?
Use the private room guide to create a room, then share its current code. The friend can follow the tested room-code steps. Public 1V1 matchmaking is a different path.

Common questions
Can I play Krillion 1v1 with a specific friend?
Use a private room and share its current code with your friend. Check that both names are in the same room before the host starts; public 1V1 matchmaking does not choose a particular friend.
Where is public Krillion 1v1?
In the official Puffer Party lobby, choose 1V1 under Table size and then Quick Play for an unrated public opponent. Rated is a separate option; we have not tested its rating formula.
