Word Lanes Level 2247 Answers

SPIRAL 6 letters - "A curve that winds in on itself" is a straight definition, and SPIRAL is the word that matches. BOOGIE in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.

BOOGIE 6 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: BOOGIE completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. The doubled O is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.

OUTSTATION 10 letters - Word Lanes strips the space, so OUTSTATION goes into the lane as one unbroken run of 10 letters. It is the longest answer in Level 2247, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.

ELEPHANT 8 letters - reading "Large, lumbering animal with a trunk" literally points to ELEPHANT. It begins with E and ends with T; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.

START 5 letters - "One of the buttons on a gaming controller" is a straight definition, and START is the word that matches. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.

ISLANDER 8 letters - the clue "One who lives on land surrounded by water" describes ISLANDER directly. It begins with I and ends with R; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.

RIDDLE 6 letters - "Puzzle type set by the Sphinx on entering Thebes" leads to RIDDLE by definition. The doubled D is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.

WAFFLES 7 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Stranger Things' Eleven was fond of Eggo ones" asks for more than one, and WAFFLES fits. It opens with an uncommon W, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.
