Word Lanes Level 1397 Answers
9 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 1397, part of the Levels 1301-1400 block. Level 1397 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
FIG 3 letters - FIG is a short, common word - the clue "An Asian fruit that rhymes with dig" gives it away with a straight definition. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.
CHUNKY 6 letters - the clue "Full of lumps, not smooth" describes CHUNKY directly. AFRAID in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
CLUES 5 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Hints, pieces of evidence" asks for more than one, and CLUES fits. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
BRADBIRD 8 letters - reading "Incredibles, The Iron Giant director" literally points to BRADBIRD. It begins with B and ends with D; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
EVITA 5 letters - "Musical about Eva Perón" is a straight definition, and EVITA is the word that matches. It begins with E and ends with A; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
MIDNIGHT 8 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: MIDNIGHT completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It begins with M and ends with T; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
AFRAID 6 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: AFRAID completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It begins with A and ends with D; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
CATHARSIS 9 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Release from repressed emotions" asks for more than one, and CATHARSIS fits. It is the longest answer in Level 1397, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
TRIPOD 6 letters - "Three-legged camera stand" is a straight definition, and TRIPOD is the word that matches. It begins with T and ends with D; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
