How to play
- 01One player thinks of a word, writes the hint and draws one dash per letter.
- 02The others guess letters. Right guesses go on their dashes; wrong ones are crossed off the alphabet and add a part to the figure: head, body, two arms, two legs.
- 03Guess the word before the figure is complete to win the round. Swap roles each round.
LV.01 Strategy
Play it better.
- Guess vowels first, then the common consonants: R, S, T, L, N.
- Short words with rare letters (JAZZ, QUIZ) are harder than long ones.
- In class, use the hint line for the topic: “a planet”, “a verb from this week”.
- Want the words from your own notes? Our PDF to Hangman tool builds rounds from any document.
