How Level 153 Breaks Down
This is level 153 of Word Hike, titled "Soft Things", part of the Australia - Nuns in a Scrum episode. It carries 25 clues, which is below the game-wide average of 33. Answers range from 4 to 9 letters, the longest being SHUTDOWNS.
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 - Nuns in a Scrum episode covers 8 levels, numbered 150 to 157. Move to level 152 or level 154, or go back to the Word Hike hub, which indexes 5,749 levels and 719 episodes.

Letters, tiles or clues — count them before you start. That constraint is the strongest filter you have.
Anchor with the answers you are sure of
Each confirmed answer narrows the ones it touches, so the easy entries are worth the first minute.
Work outwards
Follow the chain from what you have placed rather than jumping around the board.
