How Level 5214 Breaks Down
This is level 5214 of Word Hike, titled "Words For Hair", part of the Palau - Jellyfish Lake episode. It carries 28 clues, which is below the game-wide average of 33. Answers range from 4 to 11 letters, the longest being PAINSTAKING.
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 Palau - Jellyfish Lake episode covers 8 levels, numbered 5214 to 5221. Move to level 5213 or level 5215, or go back to the Word Hike hub, which indexes 5,749 levels and 719 episodes.
