How Level 516 Breaks Down
This is level 516 of Word Hike, titled "We Hate To Hear This In The Midnight", part of the Spain - Tapas episode. It carries 39 clues, which is above the game-wide average of 33. Answers range from 3 to 9 letters, the longest being FRACTIONS.
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 Spain - Tapas episode covers 8 levels, numbered 510 to 517. Move to level 515 or level 517, or go back to the Word Hike hub, which indexes 5,749 levels and 719 episodes.
