Word Lanes Level 79 Answers
8 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 79, part of the Levels 1-100 block. Level 79 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
PRIVILEGE 9 letters - "Advantage only available to a certain group" is a straight definition, and PRIVILEGE is the word that matches. It ties with PESHMERGA for the longest lane in Level 79 at 9 letters, so either one opens up the most crossings.
BOSTON 6 letters - the clue "City in which Ally McBeal was set" describes BOSTON directly. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.
PORTUGAL 8 letters - "Euro 2016 winning nation" leads to PORTUGAL by definition. BACKYARD in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
POPPINS 7 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: POPPINS completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. The doubled P is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
PESHMERGA 9 letters - "Member of Kurdish military organization in Iraq" is a straight definition, and PESHMERGA is the word that matches. It begins with P and ends with A; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
BACKYARD 8 letters - Word Lanes strips the space, so BACKYARD goes into the lane as one unbroken run of 8 letters. No visible gap in the lane, so count the full 8 boxes before guessing.
TIMESLOT 8 letters - Word Lanes strips the space, so TIMESLOT goes into the lane as one unbroken run of 8 letters. It begins with T and ends with T; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
OVERTHINK 9 letters - Word Lanes strips the space, so OVERTHINK goes into the lane as one unbroken run of 9 letters. No visible gap in the lane, so count the full 9 boxes before guessing.
