## What is Hangman'?

Hangman is a classic way to learn new words or remember how words are spelled. It is perfect for classrooms or to improve vocabulary! Hangout with friends in the 2 player mode or achieve a high score against thousands of others on the leaderboard.

**FEATURES**
- Thousands of handpicked words
- Multiplayer up to 2 players
- 100 levels of challenging words
- Climb up the Leaderboard ranks
- Progress is automatically saved
- Unlock different rewards
- View definitions of words to expand vocabulary.

**FUNCTIONALITY**
- Earn a high score as you play
- Compare that score to others
- Play against a friend as you choose your own word
- Earn stars as you beat each level


How to Play:
The computer, a friend, or the level will pick a word. The word will be hidden. Start guessing letters that you think might be in the word. Generally, start by guessing common letters like vowels, "s," "t," and "n". 
Whenever you guess a letter that is in the secret word, the letter will appear into the blank where it occurs and you will score points. Guessing a letter that is not in the secret word results in a new part of the Hangman figure added. Seven wrong letters and the hangman will be hung. You win if you guess every letter of the secret word before the hangman is hung.

### 5/5 — Teach and learn

*2019-06-19*

It is a game for all ages. From toddlers to elders. Good productive past time and at the same time testing language skills.

### 5/5 — Really enjoy the latest update.

*2019-04-06*

Addictive.

**Developer response:** 😎

### 5/5 — Used to be okay, but now FANTASTIC!!!

*2019-04-05*

I tried lots of games but none let me type in more than 1 word but this one does AND it has both 1 and 2 player like a normal hangman game but this is fantastic because you earn points and there is even a leaderboard! Another cool thing is the levels. No other hangman game that I saw had levels. I encourage everyone to get this game! I give this game 10 STAR!!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

**Developer response:** 🤩Wow! Thanks for the high praise! I’ve got even more in store for the future

### 4/5 — hangman

*2019-02-24*

this is the best game i love it😀😃😄😁😆

**Developer response:** 💃🕺👯‍♀️

### 4/5 — Good and homey

*2019-01-19*

I admit that I’ve only played this for 5 minutes, and I already like the homey feel and personal responses of the developer to other reviewers. I do have a couple of comments though. The theme colors are a little stark for my taste except yellow which didn’t work well on my phone in night mode. It would also be nice if there was some way to distinguish letters on the keyboard that were correct versus wrong. Otherwise I look forward to building my word skills.

**Developer response:** I had to look up and see if "homey" was a good thing lol. I've updated the color picker. You can pick any color you'd like. I have also made the keyboard button red when an incorrect letter is pressed

### 5/5 — Keep your sanity. Play this game & everything else fades away!

*2018-09-02*

Craig has done a wonderful job developing this game app for us!

This game is great without any excuses to play, but it's also wonderful for hanging around waiting, waiting in line, Ignoring commercials while streaming non-commercial free shows or movies and anything else that threatens your sanity. 😂

I draw the line (pun intended) at playing while driving but I'd rather have someone else at the wheel so I can keep on playing. 😀

**Developer response:** This review is perfect

### 5/5 — Fun, best hangman

### 5/5 — Great hangman app

Love this app. Just the right amount of challenge... not so hard that you never win, but not so easy you never lose. It’s fun to play and relaxing.

**Developer response:** You have great taste in hangman apps

### 5/5 — Great game
