Hman

Puzzle1978

Description

Hman is a digital version of the traditional Hangman pen and paper game. The player must guess a word of which only the length is known by naming letters. If the letter is correct the player is told the location(s) of the letter within the hidden word. If the answer is incorrect the player gets a mark. Reach the limit of marks and it's game over.

This version of the game doesn't have any hangman graphics, but does let the player determine the difficulty by choosing the maximum number of marks. The game visualizes both letters that have been correctly and incorrectly chosen, and letters that haven't yet been chosen.
