Behind every Pick Up or Down category is a list of numbers that is great for comparing: how many people live in a country, how tall is a tower, how fast is an animal? On these pages you will find a short introduction to each category with background knowledge and estimating tips.
All values are rounded approximations (as of 2024/25) meant for fun – not as a factual source. Knowing the orders of magnitude makes you a better player, and that is exactly what these overviews are for.
Pick Up or Down keeps growing: we regularly add new categories and revise existing ones. New topics appear here as soon as they are available in the game.
