Word Lanes Level 857 Answers
11 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 857, part of the Levels 801-900 block. Level 857 contains 11 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
LOFT 4 letters - "A bedroom or space directly under the roof" is a straight definition, and LOFT is the word that matches. At just 4 letters, it is a quick fill - the crossing letters from longer answers should confirm it.
FILE 4 letters - the clue "Box or folder for sorting papers in an office" describes FILE directly. LOFT in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
OUTOFDATE 9 letters - Word Lanes strips the space, so OUTOFDATE goes into the lane as one unbroken run of 9 letters. It is the longest answer in Level 857, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
PAY 3 letters - PAY is a short, common word - the clue "Give one money for services" gives it away with a straight definition. It ties with UFO for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.
LEGIT 5 letters - "Informal word for legal" is a straight definition, and LEGIT is the word that matches. It begins with L and ends with T; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
SHAKER 6 letters - the clue "Kitchen cabinets named after a US religious group" describes SHAKER directly. It begins with S and ends with R; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
PURE 4 letters - "Not mixed or contaminated, rhymes with cure" leads to PURE by definition. It begins with P and ends with E; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
SEED 4 letters - the past tense ending narrows the options - "Plant pip or kernel" leads to SEED. The doubled E is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
STUDENT 7 letters - "Pupil, learner" is a straight definition, and STUDENT is the word that matches. It begins with S and ends with T; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
DEPICTS 7 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Shows, represents" asks for more than one, and DEPICTS fits. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
UFO 3 letters - UFO is a short, common word - the clue "Unidentified flying object in the sky" gives it away with a straight definition. At just 3 letters, it is a quick fill - the crossing letters from longer answers should confirm it.
