About Classic Hangman

Five spare minutes are plenty for Classic Hangman, a doodle-style take on the old pencil-and-paper word game. A hidden word is shown only as blanks, and all you know is how many letters it has.

Each turn you pick a letter. If the word contains it, the letter fills in where it belongs; if not, you lose a life and the little hangman gets closer to trouble. Run out of lives before finishing the word and the round is over. Starting with common vowels and thinking about likely letter patterns helps a lot. It is a relaxed brain game with an educational angle, playable with a mouse click or a finger tap.
