How Level 1497 Breaks Down
This is level 1497 of Word Hike, part of the Fiji - Fire Walking episode. It carries 36 clues, which is right on the game-wide average of 33. Answers range from 4 to 9 letters, the longest being HORSESHOE.
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 Fiji - Fire Walking episode covers 8 levels, numbered 1494 to 1501. Move to level 1496 or level 1498, or go back to the Word Hike hub, which indexes 5,749 levels and 719 episodes.
