Word Lanes Level 8897 Answers
7 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 8897, part of the Levels 8801-8900 block. Level 8897 contains 7 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.

Level 8897 Clues and Answers

| Dress up clothing for a children's tea party | COSTUMES |
| In tennis, foul at the baseline when serving | FOOTFAULT |

Word-by-Word Breakdown
POTASSIUM 9 letters - "Chemical element with symbol K, found in bananas" is a straight definition, and POTASSIUM is the word that matches. It ties with FOOTFAULT for the longest lane in Level 8897 at 9 letters, so either one opens up the most crossings.
COSTUMES 8 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Dress up clothing for a children's tea party" asks for more than one, and COSTUMES fits. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
FOOTFAULT 9 letters - Word Lanes strips the space, so FOOTFAULT goes into the lane as one unbroken run of 9 letters. The doubled O is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
CONCORD 7 letters - reading "Pact, alliance, understanding" literally points to CONCORD. It ties with FATTONY for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.
BROODILY 8 letters - the adverb ending narrows the options - "Pensively, fretfully, sullenly" leads to BROODILY. COSTUMES in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
VLADIMIR 8 letters - the clue "Russian medieval capital, Russian Orthodox" describes VLADIMIR directly. It opens with an uncommon V, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.
FATTONY 7 letters - "The Simpsons mobster voiced by Joe Mantegna" leads to FATTONY by definition. The doubled T is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
