How to play Hangman
Bring your attention to one round of Hangman. Find all letters before eight incorrect guesses. A correct guess does not reduce the remaining allowance. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Compare the starting position with the example in the Guide. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.
A careful first round
Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Make the next step deliberately.
Your goal
Find all letters before eight incorrect guesses. A correct guess does not reduce the remaining allowance. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Keep the controls in easy reach.
Step by step
- Read the clue and note the number of hidden letters.
- Select a letter on the keyboard or type one on a computer.
- Repeated correct letters are all revealed together.
- Finish the word or start another round.
Controls
Use the on-screen controls with a mouse or touch. Use the control method described here for this activity. Read the example below alongside these instructions.
A useful example
In LETTER, choosing T reveals both T positions. It uses no incorrect guesses. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Take a moment to compare.
Watch out for this
Selecting the same letter twice has no effect. A different version of the game may use a different rule. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
