How Level 517 Breaks Down
This is level 517 of Word Hike, titled "It Takes Time To Pick...", part of the Spain - Tapas episode. It carries 38 clues, which is above the game-wide average of 33. Answers range from 4 to 9 letters, the longest being ORCHESTRA.
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 516 or level 518, or go back to the Word Hike hub, which indexes 5,749 levels and 719 episodes.
