Hangman: learn through an example
Start Hangman by looking at the playing area and its controls. Find all letters before eight incorrect guesses. A correct guess does not reduce the remaining allowance. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Use the opening round to become familiar with the layout. Look at what changes after your first action.
Bring this focus to a round
Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Notice the feedback after each input.
What you are aiming for
Find all letters before eight incorrect guesses. A correct guess does not reduce the remaining allowance. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Try to explain the aim in your own words.
Making your moves
- Read the clue and note the number of hidden letters.
- Select a letter on the keyboard or type one on a computer.
- Repeated correct letters are all revealed together.
- Finish the word or start another round.
Keyboard and screen controls
Use the on-screen controls with a mouse or touch. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
One way to understand the rules
In LETTER, choosing T reveals both T positions. It uses no incorrect guesses. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Look for the relevant detail.
Keep this in mind
Selecting the same letter twice has no effect. Check the rule before repeating the action. When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round.
