How Level 86 Breaks Down
This board is level 86 of the Colors category in Word Salad. You are given the 16-tile pool CALLBRIIEMOWVSUN and must find 7 answers, every one of them a color-themed word. That is right on the game-wide average of 6 words per board, so expect this one to take a little longer than most.
The longest answer is Vermilion at 9 letters, and the shortest runs to just 4. Finding the long entry first is almost always the fastest route through a Word Salad board: it consumes the rare consonants, and what remains in the pool tends to spell the short answers out for you. If you are working the category in order, level 85 comes before this one and level 87 comes next.
The Colors category runs to 100 levels in total — the full index is on the Colors page. For a different theme, the category list covers all 23, and there is a separate daily puzzle archive with 919 dated boards.

3 Tips for Colors Level 86
Play Vermilion first
It is the longest answer on this board at 9 letters, and it eats the awkward tiles. Clearing it leaves 6 shorter answers to find from a much friendlier pool — on Word Salad boards the long entry is almost always the fastest way in.
Read the pool: 6 vowels, 10 consonants
The 16 tiles are CALLBRIIEMOWVSUN — and the rare letters W, V narrow the field fast, because very few Colors answers use them. Every answer is drawn from this pool only, so count what you have before you swipe: the shortest answer here runs to just 4 letters.
You are 86% through Colors
This is level 86 of 100 in Colors, and difficulty climbs gradually across a category, so neighbouring boards share letter patterns. If this one is fighting you, level 85 is a useful warm-up. The daily puzzle uses the same mechanic on a fresh theme each day.

How we verify this level
Every word on this page comes from the Colors level data itself, not from a guess or a copy of another site. The 7 answers are checked against the 16-tile pool CALLBRIIEMOWVSUN so that no listed word can use a letter the board does not give you, and the list is re-checked whenever Bloop Games updates the game.
