Word Lanes Level 185 Answers
9 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 185, part of the Levels 101-200 block. Level 185 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
ANTIC 5 letters - "A comical or ludicrous act" is a straight definition, and ANTIC is the word that matches. ITALY in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
DEPARTURE 9 letters - the clue "A flight leaving, the act of leaving" describes DEPARTURE directly. It begins with D and ends with E; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
ITALY 5 letters - the adverb ending narrows the options - "Country where the Enel power company is based" leads to ITALY. It begins with I and ends with Y; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
STRETCHING 10 letters - the present participle ending narrows the options - "Flexing one's muscles" leads to STRETCHING. At 10 letters this is a long lane - place it early to unlock the maximum number of crossings.
LASTAMPA 8 letters - "Italian daily newspaper based in Turin" is a straight definition, and LASTAMPA is the word that matches. It begins with L and ends with A; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
BIG 3 letters - BIG is a short, common word - the clue "Large, enormous" gives it away with a straight definition. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.
RESEMBLANCE 11 letters - "Sameness as someone else's face" leads to RESEMBLANCE by definition. It is the longest answer in Level 185, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
SUNROOF 7 letters - reading "The top of a car that can be opened in summer" literally points to SUNROOF. The doubled O is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
SYRUPY 6 letters - "Thick, treacly, viscous" is a straight definition, and SYRUPY is the word that matches. It begins with S and ends with Y; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
