About Hangman
Hangman is the classic word-guessing game right in your browser. A secret word is picked from a built-in list, and you guess one letter at a time. Correct letters fill in the blanks while each wrong letter draws another piece of the hangman. You get six wrong guesses before the round is lost, and a New Word button starts a fresh puzzle any time.
It is completely free with no sign-up, no ads, and no limits. Everything runs entirely in your browser, so the word list and your guesses never leave your device. Play with the on-screen A to Z buttons or your physical keyboard, on desktop or mobile.
