Word Lanes Level 3165 Answers

WASTE 5 letters - "Discard unnecessarily or carelessly" is a straight definition, and WASTE is the word that matches. It opens with an uncommon W, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.

CATCHPHRASE 11 letters - the clue "Electronic Hasbro game similar to Taboo" describes CATCHPHRASE directly. It is the longest answer in Level 3165, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.

STINGRAY 8 letters - "Flat, long tailed, cartilaginous fish" leads to STINGRAY by definition. It begins with S and ends with Y; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.

URTICARIA 9 letters - reading "Hives or nettle rash" literally points to URTICARIA. BARCELONA in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.

SNAP 4 letters - "Kids' simple matching card game, anagram of pans" is a straight definition, and SNAP is the word that matches. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.

SCARRY 6 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: SCARRY completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. The doubled R is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
