This is level 4987 of Word Hike, titled "Things With Handles", part of the Luxembourg - Differdange episode. It carries 43 clues, which is above the game-wide average of 33. Answers range from 3 to 10 letters, the longest being ANKLEBITER.
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.
