How Level 888 Breaks Down
This is level 888 of Word Hike, titled "Children Try To Escape From", part of the Thailand - Monkey Buffet episode. It carries 36 clues, which is right on the game-wide average of 33. Answers range from 3 to 9 letters, the longest being NIGHTMARE.
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 Thailand - Monkey Buffet episode covers 8 levels, numbered 886 to 893. Move to level 887 or level 889, or go back to the Word Hike hub, which indexes 5,749 levels and 719 episodes.
