Word Lanes Level 8701 Answers
6 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 8701, part of the Levels 8701-8800 block. Level 8701 contains 6 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 are among the hardest levels in the game, with obscure trivia and compound answers that reward the crossing-letter method. 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
PAPERBACK 9 letters - "Book with a soft cover" is a straight definition, and PAPERBACK is the word that matches. It is the longest answer in Level 8701, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
SQUIRREL 8 letters - the clue "Bushy-tailed tree rodent" describes SQUIRREL directly. The doubled R is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
SPLASH 6 letters - "Daryl Hannah mermaid movie" leads to SPLASH by definition. It ties with SKILLS for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.
PELOTON 7 letters - reading "Main pack of riders in a cycling road race" literally points to PELOTON. It begins with P and ends with N; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
SKILLS 6 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Talents or abilities that develop with practice" asks for more than one, and SKILLS fits. The doubled L is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
LOCKED 6 letters - the past tense ending narrows the options - "To be secured or fastened" leads to LOCKED. SPLASH in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
