Word Lanes Level 386 Answers
9 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 386, part of the Levels 301-400 block. Level 386 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 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.

Word-by-Word Breakdown
COE 3 letters - COE is a short, common word - the clue "British Olympic runner-turned-politician Sebastian" gives it away with a straight definition. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.
AMERICA 7 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: AMERICA completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It begins with A and ends with A; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
YEAST 5 letters - "Fungus used to make bread" leads to YEAST by definition. It opens with an uncommon Y, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.
HIDEANDSEEK 11 letters - reading "Game where one is concealed as another finds them" literally points to HIDEANDSEEK. It is the longest answer in Level 386, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
NAUTILUS 8 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Nemo's ship according to Jules Verne" asks for more than one, and NAUTILUS fits. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
PARTICULAR 10 letters - the clue "Specific, distinct" describes PARTICULAR directly. At 10 letters this is a long lane - place it early to unlock the maximum number of crossings.
CHIHUAHUA 9 letters - "Tiny Mexican dog" leads to CHIHUAHUA by definition. It begins with C and ends with A; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
THRIVE 6 letters - reading "To prosper, flourish or blossom" literally points to THRIVE. It begins with T and ends with E; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
PRUNE 5 letters - "Trim one's hedges" is a straight definition, and PRUNE is the word that matches. YEAST in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
