Word Lanes Level 917 Answers
7 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 917, part of the Levels 901-1000 block. Level 917 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 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
ABDUCTIONS 10 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Alien kidnappings" asks for more than one, and ABDUCTIONS fits. It is the longest answer in Level 917, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
ACIDOSIS 8 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Condition of too much acid in the body" asks for more than one, and ACIDOSIS fits. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
DUNGEON 7 letters - "Dank prison, in a castle" leads to DUNGEON by definition. It ties with DEFICIT for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.
DEFICIT 7 letters - reading "Often confused with debt, costs exceed revenue" literally points to DEFICIT. DUNGEON in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
ACROBAT 7 letters - "Performer, walks on wires, swings above crowd" is a straight definition, and ACROBAT is the word that matches. It begins with A and ends with T; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
CROSTINI 8 letters - the clue "Small Italian toasts served with toppings" describes CROSTINI directly. It begins with C and ends with I; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
CIGARILLO 9 letters - "Small, cigarette-sized cigar" leads to CIGARILLO by definition. The doubled L is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
