Word Lanes Level 1279 Answers
8 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 1279, part of the Levels 1201-1300 block. Level 1279 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 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
DOUBLEDAY 9 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: DOUBLEDAY completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It ties with BLACKMAIL for the longest lane in Level 1279 at 9 letters, so either one opens up the most crossings.
BLACKMAIL 9 letters - the clue "Demand money in order to keep secrets" describes BLACKMAIL directly. DOUBLEDAY in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
HIDEAWAY 8 letters - "Hiding place" leads to HIDEAWAY by definition. It begins with H and ends with Y; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
CROSSBAR 8 letters - Word Lanes strips the space, so CROSSBAR goes into the lane as one unbroken run of 8 letters. The doubled S is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
