Every answer below is checked letter by letter against the current live version of the game, so the word you copy here is exactly what the app accepts. Solutions on this level run from 3 letters at the short end up to 12 letters at the long end, with POINTOFORDER, PLYMOUTHROCK, PLAYSOFGLORY and PLAYINGHOOKY tied as the longest at 12 letters.
