What is Hangman?

Hangman is the classic word-guessing game where you reveal a hidden word one letter at a time. Guess wrong and parts of the hangman figure appear — you get six chances before the game ends. Pick a category and see how many words you can solve.

How to use

1. Step 1 — A random word is selected and displayed as blank dashes. Choose a category like Animals, Countries, or Food for themed words.
2. Step 2 — Tap or type letters to guess. Correct letters fill in their positions; wrong guesses add to the hangman drawing.
3. Step 3 — Win by guessing all letters before 6 wrong guesses. The word is revealed on loss. Tap New Game to play again.

Result

Category: Animals. The word is _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (7 letters). You guess 'E' — it appears twice. Then 'A' — miss! After guessing E, L, P, H, A, N, T you reveal 'ELEPHANT' with only 1 wrong guess.
