Word Lanes Level 1496 Answers

7 clues solved and verified

This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 1496, part of the Levels 1401-1500 block. Level 1496 contains 7 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 sit in the intermediate band, where the order turns random, clues start using wordplay, and multi-word answers appear. 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.

Level 1496 Clues and Answers

ClueAnswer

Opposite of narrow WIDE
Prohibit a pilot from flying GROUND
Proofer who checks more than grammar and spellings EDITOR
Totally overcast SUNLESS
We Need to Talk About Kevin actor Tilda SWINTON

Word-by-Word Breakdown

ARRIVALS 8 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Gate walked through by those who've just landed" asks for more than one, and ARRIVALS fits. It is the longest answer in Level 1496, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.

SORA 4 letters - the clue "Main character in Kingdom Hearts video game" describes SORA directly. It ties with WIDE for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.

WIDE 4 letters - "Opposite of narrow" leads to WIDE by definition. It opens with an uncommon W, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.

GROUND 6 letters - reading "Prohibit a pilot from flying" literally points to GROUND. EDITOR in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.

EDITOR 6 letters - "Proofer who checks more than grammar and spellings" is a straight definition, and EDITOR is the word that matches. It begins with E and ends with R; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.

SUNLESS 7 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Totally overcast" asks for more than one, and SUNLESS fits. The doubled S is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.

SWINTON 7 letters - "We Need to Talk About Kevin actor Tilda" leads to SWINTON by definition. It begins with S and ends with N; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
