Word Hangman puts your erudition and vocabulary to the test in a word guessing game built around escalating difficulty. Choose a category, read the hint, and start selecting letters to uncover the hidden word. Every correct letter slots into place on the board; every wrong one adds a piece to the gallows drawing. Complete levels without exhausting your attempts to earn rewards, unlock new achievements, and push your results further.
At the start of each level a hidden word waits to be uncovered. Select letters from the on-screen keyboard to open them in the word. A correct letter appears in its position immediately. An incorrect guess adds the next part of the gallows pattern, so keep your wrong attempts to a minimum before the drawing is complete.
Fans of the classic gallows mechanic can head straight to Hangman 1-4 Players, which keeps the same letter-guessing format and themed word pools while adding a multiplayer challenge for up to three friends. For more vocabulary-focused word puzzles, 4 Pics 1 Word uses the familiar scrambled-letter keyboard to reveal hidden words, this time through four picture clues rather than category hints.
