Word Lanes Level 140 Answers
8 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 140, part of the Levels 101-200 block. Level 140 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
TYPEFACES 9 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: TYPEFACES completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It ties with USERNAMES for the longest lane in Level 140 at 9 letters, so either one opens up the most crossings.
ALLOYS 6 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Bronze, brass, and steel" asks for more than one, and ALLOYS fits. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.
HOKKAIDO 8 letters - "Island at north end of Japan's Kitamaebune route" leads to HOKKAIDO by definition. The doubled K is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
GOLIATH 7 letters - reading "Largest playable race in Dungeons & Dragons" literally points to GOLIATH. It begins with G and ends with H; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
USERNAMES 9 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Login aliases used to access online accounts" asks for more than one, and USERNAMES fits. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
CAVITYSAM 9 letters - the clue "Name of the patient in the board game Operation" describes CAVITYSAM directly. TYPEFACES in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
SHREDDED 8 letters - the past tense ending narrows the options - "Torn into small pieces, like coconut" leads to SHREDDED. The doubled D is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
TURNBACK 8 letters - Word Lanes strips the space, so TURNBACK 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.
