Word Lanes Level 2166 Answers
13 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 2166, part of the Levels 2101-2200 block. Level 2166 contains 13 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
ANACHRONISM 11 letters - "A cell phone in a medieval movie" is a straight definition, and ANACHRONISM is the word that matches. It is the longest answer in Level 2166, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
SHOW 4 letters - the clue "A performance" describes SHOW directly. At just 4 letters, it is a quick fill - the crossing letters from longer answers should confirm it.
OUR 3 letters - OUR is a short, common word - the clue "A word often confused with the term for 60 minutes" gives it away with a straight definition. It ties with FRY for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.
HIPPO 5 letters - reading "African mammal that's hungry hungry in the game" literally points to HIPPO. The doubled P is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
FRY 3 letters - FRY is a short, common word - the clue "Cook in hot fat" gives it away with a straight definition. At just 3 letters, it is a quick fill - the crossing letters from longer answers should confirm it.
