Hangman: how a round works

Bring your attention to one round of Hangman. Find all letters before eight incorrect guesses. A correct guess does not reduce the remaining allowance. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Use the opening round to become familiar with the layout. Use the example below to understand a decision.

Practice with a purpose

Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Make the next step deliberately.

Your objective

Find all letters before eight incorrect guesses. A correct guess does not reduce the remaining allowance. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Keep the controls in easy reach.

Step by step

  1. Read the clue and note the number of hidden letters.
  2. Select a letter on the keyboard or type one on a computer.
  3. Repeated correct letters are all revealed together.
  4. Finish the word or start another round.

How your actions work

Use the on-screen controls with a mouse or touch. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Check any mode label before starting.

Follow the example

In LETTER, choosing T reveals both T positions. It uses no incorrect guesses. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Verify the rule before continuing.

Keep this in mind

Selecting the same letter twice has no effect. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
