The October 14, 2026 puzzle ran from a Pteranodon wingspan at 6 m to an Argentinosaurus at 33 m — about 6× apart, drawing on dinosaurs. The pair furthest apart was round 4: a Pteranodon wingspan is 1.3× as big as a family sedan.
Answer: Diplodocus — 25 m. A Diplodocus measures 25 m (length / span), which is almost exactly the same size as the reference, a blue whale at 25 m.
Almost half of Diplodocus was tail, which may have cracked like a whip.
Common miss: players tend to inflate a Diplodocus when it sits beside a blue whale — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: Stegosaurus — 9 m. A Stegosaurus measures 9 m (length / span), which is almost exactly the same size as the reference, a Triceratops at 9 m.
A brain the size of a lime, in a body as long as a bus.
Common miss: players tend to inflate a Stegosaurus when it sits beside a Triceratops — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: Argentinosaurus — 33 m. An Argentinosaurus measures 33 m (length / span), which is about 1.1× smaller than the reference, a Space Shuttle orbiter at 37.3 m.
Some estimates place this giant at more than 30 metres long.
Common miss: players tend to inflate an Argentinosaurus when it sits beside a Space Shuttle orbiter — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: Pteranodon Wingspan — 6 m. A Pteranodon wingspan measures 6 m (length / span), which is 1.3× as big as the reference, a family sedan at 4.6 m.
Measured across the wings — a span no living bird comes close to.
Common miss: players tend to compress a Pteranodon wingspan when it sits beside a family sedan — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: Tyrannosaurus rex — 12.3 m. A Tyrannosaurus rex measures 12.3 m (length / span), which is about 1.2× smaller than the reference, a Spinosaurus at 15 m.
A large T. rex reached around 12.3 metres long.
Common miss: players tend to inflate a Tyrannosaurus rex when it sits beside a Spinosaurus — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
