Word Lanes Level 8870 Answers
9 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 8870, part of the Levels 8801-8900 block. Level 8870 contains 9 clues, each one solved and then typed back into the live Fanatee Inc app so that every answer on this page matches the word the game actually accepts. These are among the hardest levels in the game, with obscure trivia and compound answers that reward the crossing-letter method. Below you will find each clue paired with its exact answer in a clean two-column table, followed by a word-by-word breakdown that explains why each solution fits its lane, how long it is, and which letters it hands to the crossing clues. If a lane is fighting you, start with the longest answer in the level: it releases the most crossing letters and usually collapses the rest of the stack. Because Word Lanes randomises level order per player after Level 12, the number printed on your screen may not be the number here - if the clues below are not the ones you are looking at, use the Clue Search Tool and type any word from your clue instead of hunting by number.

Word-by-Word Breakdown
BETTEROFF 9 letters - "Ariana Grande song about not being around bad boy" is a straight definition, and BETTEROFF is the word that matches. It ties with CHRISTMAS for the longest lane in Level 8870 at 9 letters, so either one opens up the most crossings.
SHEAVES 7 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Bundles of grain" asks for more than one, and SHEAVES fits. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
IMPOSE 6 letters - "Enforce a ruling or a law" leads to IMPOSE by definition. It ties with FACADE for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.
DOORKNOB 8 letters - Word Lanes strips the space, so DOORKNOB goes into the lane as one unbroken run of 8 letters. The doubled O is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
DRAWING 7 letters - the present participle ending narrows the options - "Sketching with a pencil" leads to DRAWING. SHEAVES in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
FACADE 6 letters - the clue "The decorative front to a building" describes FACADE directly. It begins with F and ends with E; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
AUGUST 6 letters - "There's a play set in this month, in Osage County" leads to AUGUST by definition. It begins with A and ends with T; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
TOILED 6 letters - the past tense ending narrows the options - "Worked hard" leads to TOILED. It begins with T and ends with D; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
CHRISTMAS 9 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: CHRISTMAS completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It begins with C and ends with S; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
