How Level 146 Breaks Down
This is level 146 of Word Hike, titled "It Goes Back And Forth", part of the Australia - Koala episode. It carries 29 clues, which is right on the game-wide average of 33. Answers range from 4 to 11 letters, the longest being COMPETITION.
Word Hike builds every answer from a shared letter tray, so the tray constrains you as much as the clue does. On a level this size the practical order is to clear the short entries first — they use up the vowels and common consonants, and what remains in the tray narrows the long answers considerably. The clues themselves lean on everyday phrasing rather than crossword shorthand, so read them literally before looking for a trick.
The Australia - Koala episode covers 8 levels, numbered 142 to 149. Move to level 145 or level 147, or go back to the Word Hike hub, which indexes 5,749 levels and 719 episodes.
