Word Lanes Level 996 Answers
7 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 996, part of the Levels 901-1000 block. Level 996 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
CRANKY 6 letters - "A grumpy, irritable attitude" is a straight definition, and CRANKY is the word that matches. It ties with DEXTER for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.
REACTION 8 letters - the clue "A response to something, like in chemistry" describes REACTION directly. It begins with R and ends with N; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
BLUSTERED 9 letters - the past tense ending narrows the options - "During the storm, winds did this against the house" leads to BLUSTERED. It is the longest answer in Level 996, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
DREAMER 7 letters - reading "Person who envisions a better world" literally points to DREAMER. STAMINA in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
DEXTER 6 letters - "Serial killer TV show starring Michael C. Hall" is a straight definition, and DEXTER is the word that matches. It begins with D and ends with R; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
STAMINA 7 letters - the clue "Strength and energy to keep going for a long time" describes STAMINA directly. It begins with S and ends with A; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
HOCKEY 6 letters - "Team sport played with sticks on field and ice" leads to HOCKEY by definition. It begins with H and ends with Y; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
