HangMan

The object of the game is to solve the puzzle before the hangman's body is completely drawn. You are given a clue; for example, 'Terms of Endearment'. Guess letters by either typing the letter or clicking the letter.

Each letter you guess incorrectly results in a part of the hangman's body to appear. You lose if he is completely drawn (6 incorrect guesses).

When you have either lost or guessed correctly, you can move on to another puzzle by selecting 'New' from the 'Game' menu (or press F2).

HangMan organizes puzzles into categories. These categories are stored in text files. You can edit or create new puzzles either through HangMan or via notepad or edit.

To change the current puzzle table, click 'Options' under the 'Game' menu. All puzzle extensions are HNG. Select your puzzle from the list or from a different drive or directory.
