A word used in fossil hunting or palaeontology
“A word used in fossil hunting or palaeontology” is a question in OnlyClick, and our answer book knows 85 answers to it. Most people go straight for Fossil, Dinosaur or Bone, so those barely lift the rocket. It is a fairly short list: only 12 answers sit in the two rarest tiers, so reaching one takes real knowledge.
The odd entry you read about once tends to score far better than the classroom example. You will find it in stage 31, “Fossil Hunters”, of the Science mission. The first stages of every mission are free, and later stages come with the full mission.
