Hangman

Hangman is the classic game of guessing a word letter by letter. Choose a theme — animals, fruits, countries, jobs, sports, space, Halloween and more — or let the game pick one at random.

✅ How to play

Click a letter or type it on your keyboard. If the letter is in the word, it appears in every place where it belongs. If not, one more part of the stick figure is drawn. You can make six mistakes: if the drawing is complete, you lose.

Start with the vowels and the most common consonants, such as T, N, S, R and L. Your wins and your current streak are shown above the drawing. Press Enter or “Next word” to play again.
