How Level 249 Breaks Down
This is level 249 of Word Hike, titled "It Fades Over Time", part of the Egypt - Valley of the Kings episode. It carries 27 clues, which is below the game-wide average of 33. Answers range from 3 to 10 letters, the longest being OUTOFORDER.
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 Egypt - Valley of the Kings episode covers 8 levels, numbered 246 to 253. Move to level 248 or level 250, or go back to the Word Hike hub, which indexes 5,749 levels and 719 episodes.
