Word Lanes Level 8404 Answers
9 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 8404, part of the Levels 8401-8500 block. Level 8404 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 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
ATM 3 letters - ATM is a short, common word - the clue "A device that gives money using a bank card" gives it away with a straight definition. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.
NIGHTMARE 9 letters - Word Lanes strips the space, so NIGHTMARE goes into the lane as one unbroken run of 9 letters. It is the longest answer in Level 8404, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
ELEMENTS 8 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Base chemicals" asks for more than one, and ELEMENTS fits. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
VALVE 5 letters - reading "Game creator of Half Life and Portal" literally points to VALVE. It opens with an uncommon V, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.
HAIRY 5 letters - "Opposite of bald" is a straight definition, and HAIRY is the word that matches. VALVE in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
ADVOCATE 8 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: ADVOCATE completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It begins with A and ends with E; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
HUSTLE 6 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: HUSTLE completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It begins with H and ends with E; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
TOOTHY 6 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: TOOTHY completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. The doubled O is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
BUBBLE 6 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: BUBBLE completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. The doubled B is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
