How Level 17 Breaks Down
This is level 17 of Word Hike, titled "Building Material", part of the USA - The City episode. It carries 26 clues, which is below the game-wide average of 33. Answers range from 3 to 8 letters, the longest being ANALYSIS.
Word Hike builds every answer from a shared letter tray, so the tray constrains you as much as the clue does. On a level this size the practical order is to clear the short entries first — they use up the vowels and common consonants, and what remains in the tray narrows the long answers considerably. The clues themselves lean on everyday phrasing rather than crossword shorthand, so read them literally before looking for a trick.
The USA - The City episode covers 8 levels, numbered 14 to 21. Move to level 16 or level 18, or go back to the Word Hike hub, which indexes 5,749 levels and 719 episodes.
