What is Hangman?

Hangman is a classic word-guessing game where you try to figure out a hidden word one letter at a time. Each incorrect guess brings the stick figure closer to completion — guess the word before running out of attempts to win. Our free browser version features a curated word list, visual progress tracking, and a win/loss scoreboard. It is a fun way to test your vocabulary and deductive reasoning skills.

How to Play

  1. A random word is selected and displayed as blank dashes representing each letter.
  2. Click letters on the on-screen keyboard to guess. Correct letters are revealed in their positions.
  3. Incorrect guesses add a body part to the hangman figure. You typically have 6 wrong guesses before losing.
  4. Win by guessing all letters before the figure is complete. Your wins and losses are tracked across rounds.
