About Hangman Game
Hangman is a classic paper-and-pencil word guessing game for two or more players. Its origins are somewhat unclear, but it has been popular since at least the Victorian era. An early version was described in the 1894 book Traditional Games by Alice Bertha Gomme, where it was called “Birds, Beasts and Fishes.” In the 20th century, the game became widely known as Hangman. In this game, one player thinks of a word, and the other tries to guess it by suggesting letters within a limited number of guesses. Each wrong guess draws a part of a stick figure being “hanged,” adding suspense. Today, Hangman remains a fun and educational game, enjoyed by children and adults alike, both on paper and online.
HangmanPlus brings the fun of the classic Hangman game to the online world — ready to play anytime, anywhere.
