Word Lanes Level 86 Answers
9 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 86, part of the Levels 1-100 block. Level 86 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
SLOG 4 letters - "A long and difficult task or journey" is a straight definition, and SLOG is the word that matches. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.
ICHOR 5 letters - the clue "Blood-like fluid from a Greek god" describes ICHOR directly. NEPAL in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
MIRRORING 9 letters - the present participle ending narrows the options - "Copying someone's mannerisms and moves" leads to MIRRORING. The doubled R is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
NEPAL 5 letters - reading "Country with the world's tallest mountain" literally points to NEPAL. It begins with N and ends with L; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
DATEOFBIRTH 11 letters - "Day, month and year someone was born" is a straight definition, and DATEOFBIRTH is the word that matches. It is the longest answer in Level 86, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
DIETRICH 8 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: DIETRICH completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It begins with D and ends with H; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
GUESTLIST 9 letters - "Names of people invited to a party" leads to GUESTLIST by definition. It begins with G and ends with T; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
UNKNOWN 7 letters - reading "Something that is unfamiliar or not understood" literally points to UNKNOWN. It begins with U and ends with N; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
TURTLE 6 letters - "Tortoise-like sea creature with a shell" is a straight definition, and TURTLE is the word that matches. It begins with T and ends with E; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
