Hangman questions
How do you play hangman?
A hidden word is shown as a row of blanks. Guess one letter at a time. A correct letter fills in every place it appears; a wrong letter adds a part to the drawing. Work out the word before the drawing is finished, after six wrong guesses.
Which letters should I guess first?
Start with the most common letters in English: E, A, R, I, O, T, N and S. Once a few are in place, use the topic to narrow down the word.
Can I play on my phone or with a keyboard?
Both. Tap the on-screen letters, or type on a keyboard. Press Enter for the next word.
Where do the words come from?
From the same themed word lists as our word search puzzles, so there are topics for every interest and school subject.
