Word Lanes Level 10249 Answers
8 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 10249, part of the Levels 10201-10300 block. Level 10249 contains 8 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
TARIFF 6 letters - "A tax on imports or exports" is a straight definition, and TARIFF is the word that matches. It ties with PHLEGM for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.
BIONICLE 8 letters - the clue "LEGO toy line about cyborg warriors known as Toa" describes BIONICLE directly. It ties with EMBOLISM for the longest lane in Level 10249 at 8 letters, so either one opens up the most crossings.
PHLEGM 6 letters - "Mucus coughed up with a cold" leads to PHLEGM by definition. TARIFF in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
PINCHES 7 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Squeezes between fingertips, a baby's cheeks maybe" asks for more than one, and PINCHES fits. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
COLLINS 7 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: COLLINS completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. The doubled L is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
EMBOLISM 8 letters - the clue "The blockage of an artery obstructing blood flow" describes EMBOLISM directly. It begins with E and ends with M; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
ALCAPONE 8 letters - "US gangster known for bootlegging in 1920s Chicago" leads to ALCAPONE by definition. It begins with A and ends with E; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
BYLINE 6 letters - reading "Writing credit in a newspaper" literally points to BYLINE. It begins with B and ends with E; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
