### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2023-07-24, version 1.5*

I like the format, not just a word but possibly multiple words or a phrase. It adds more possibilities and makes it more about knowledge and skill than luck. I wish more games of Hangman were in this game. I have done all of them multiple times, as this makes a quick break or time filler when waiting, with few resources (battery) used. I would, however, really like to have a setting so that I can permanently mute the sounds and music. I have missed a lot of calls and messages, forgetting to turn the sound on again after playing. So, overall good. And few annoying ads—also a bonus.

Update:  it needs an easy way to report errors. The web site goes nowhere, there’s no place to do it. For example, “graters slices and peelers” should be “graters sliceRs and peelers.”  I’ve even found an occasional error of fact, beyond a mere typo. Please provide a simple reporting mechanism. 

Still enjoying this game, years later.

### 4/5 — Love playing

*2021-10-13, version 1.5*

I would have giving this a five but every time you break your record it goes to the beginning and starts all over. I would love to see how far I could get not start all over. 
Also there should be a way to buy clues with the points earned.

### 4/5 — Addictive! Only one complaint...

*2020-12-02, version 1.5*

The only reason I gave this app a 4 is that if you play it often enough, there are way too many repeats of words/phrases. Otherwise, I loveeee it!

### 5/5 — Полезная игра

*2018-10-26, version 1.4*

Приятное оформление. В сочетании с переводчиком неплохо развивает словарный запас английских слов.

### 3/5 — Just for infinity rate asking

*2018-10-24, version 1.4*

The game is superb

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2018-10-21, version 1.4*

Really cool app! I wouldn’t expect!
Реально прикольная игра, графика и замысел на высоте. Не ожидал!

### 4/5 — Great game spoilt

*2018-10-17, version 1.4*

Great game, fantastic concept, shame it’s American launguage doesn’t translate to the rest of the world

### 5/5 — Superb

*2017-10-31, version 1.4*

Really enjoy this.

### 5/5 — This is a cool game

*2017-10-08, version 1.4*

I really enjoy it and it's really fun and educational for children

### 4/5 — Good game

*2017-08-17, version 1.4*

Would give 5 stars except for the usual "pay" to advance easier of these types of games. If you have money to waste, you don't need skill to play. You can just buy your success.

### 3/5 — Hangman is HUNG

*2017-08-02, version 1.4*

Yup

### 5/5 — Nice

### 1/5 — Too dark and quick

*2021-12-28, version 1.5*

The big problem with your hang man game is the correct  answers shown when game is over  are too dark to read

### 1/5 — Fun but constantly asking to rate

*2017-06-01, version 1.3*

I'm quite enjoying this game however it constantly is asking me to rate it. Saying not now isn't working. Let's see if rating it one star will work.....

### 1/5 — Politics in a game app?

*2017-05-31, version 1.3*

This was interesting until the political bashing. I guess the developers don't care to respect the voting choice of half the population. I've turned off the news for the constant negativity and am now deleting this app, as well.

### 1/5 — Politics?

*2017-05-22, version 1.2*

I was enjoying the game until the letter beginning a new level tried to make a political statement.  I get enough of that crap on tv.  I don't need it in a game. Bad move.

### 2/5 — Vovpl

*2020-05-23, version 1.5*

За красивым оформлением скрывается весьма посредственная игра. Временами ловишь ступор, когда абревиатуру USB подсовывают для угадывания. Сложности вываливают с самого начала. К примеру, предлагают угадать Шалтай-Болтай... Для носителей анг. языка, вполне есть вероятность, угадать это. Для тех же, кто хочет узнать, на сколько хорошо он знает английский язык, ставьте и пробуйте. 
Всем удачи и хорошего настроения!

### 2/5 — Hangman

*2017-07-23, version 1.4*

I dont see any sence of what to do my biggest was 234 then I got out and when I go in it just starts over ,so I feel like its. A waste of.Can you give me details of how you win or why it syops when a petson gets out.Theres got to be more to this game that maybe Im not aware off Thank You.

### 2/5 — Ok game, but why get political?

*2017-05-31, version 1.2*

The game is decent, but there is no need to be political. You hate Trump, I get it, but why not just relax, and try to create a fun game that doesn't piss off half of your audience?

### 2/5 — Word king

*2017-05-27, version 1.3*

The game is ok, but the political commentary has no place. You play these games to escape the constant barrage of politics.

### 2/5 — okay

*2017-05-26, version 1.3*

game is fun but having to start from the easiest level each time you're stumped is boring. upper levels require nothing more than guessing.

### 2/5 — Annoying and Disappointing

*2017-05-22, version 1.2*

I found the constant animation to be annoying.  I wish there was a way to turn it off.  I also didn't appreciate the political messages.

### 5/5 — Whole family started gathering around this game

*2024-07-10, version 1.6*

When our kids play this game all their friends and our family surround the screen trying to help guess the next hangman word. Sooo entertaining and no ads again! Best dev ever!!

### 5/5 — A trillion times better than Wordle!!!

*2022-05-31, version 1.5*

Wordle take some notes from The Hangman’s Noose! I love this game and I play for hours because it keeps up with people past/current, events, geography locations, and has a variety of different categories to decipher. Most importantly, fastest and smoothest transition from one game to the next without fifty million ads ❤️❤️❤️

### 5/5 — Great Fun!

*2022-01-07, version 1.5*

This is a good game that gets you guessing. It’s not the traditional hangman but more like a “wheel of fortune” game and instead of Pat and Vanna, you get some cartoonish characters. Simple layout but loads of time-killing fun.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2021-01-30, version 1.5*

Does anyone know if this game has a “ cheats app” with the answers?

### 5/5 — I love it!

*2020-11-10, version 1.5*

I love it!!

### 5/5 — I’m hooked!

*2020-08-05, version 1.5*

Fun!!!

### 5/5 — awesome

*2020-04-28*

Awesome spin on the classic hangman game!  very addictive fun😁

### 5/5 — Hangover

*2019-05-28, version 1.5*

This game is so addicting I woke up the next day with a hangover from playing it so long! I would recommend it to all good Americans who like to hang (humor) um very little humor I must admit .  With exciting games. You people are always surprising me with the games you create! They blow my coup!

### 5/5 — Wish you could leverage your scores

*2019-02-17, version 1.5*

Great little app, fun and addictive. I do wish if you lost a turn, you could use your points for an additional guess or a cumulative balance of turns not used for credits. Or even to go back a much higher level than 25. But still a good app to download. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Never ending fun

*2018-11-08, version 1.5*

I like the many categories of answers and it sure is addictive. One complaint. It only happened once, but I got stumped on a puzzle and it sent me all the way back to the beginning with the very easy puzzles. Still - get it!
