How Level 495 Breaks Down
This is level 495 of Word Hike, titled "Can Be Cracked", part of the Spain - Spanish Football episode. It carries 28 clues, which is below the game-wide average of 33. Answers range from 3 to 12 letters, the longest being STOCKMARKETS.
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 - Spanish Football episode covers 8 levels, numbered 494 to 501. Move to level 494 or level 496, or go back to the Word Hike hub, which indexes 5,749 levels and 719 episodes.
