How Level 74 Breaks Down
This is level 74 of Word Hike, titled "Smells Good, But Don't Eat", part of the France - The Fighting Irish episode. It carries 29 clues, which is right on the game-wide average of 33. Answers range from 4 to 11 letters, the longest being MAINTENANCE.
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.
