How Level 5474 Breaks Down
This is level 5474 of Word Hike, titled "Environmental Pollution", part of the Switzerland - Zurich episode. It carries 39 clues, which is above the game-wide average of 33. Answers range from 3 to 11 letters, the longest being KIDNEYSTONE.
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 Switzerland - Zurich episode covers 8 levels, numbered 5470 to 5477. Move to level 5473 or level 5475, or go back to the Word Hike hub, which indexes 5,749 levels and 719 episodes.
