How do you play Hangman?

Answer 1

Hangman is an easy game that requires at least 2 people to play. All the materials you need are just a piece of paper and a pencil. To start playing, choose one player to start out the game. The person can think of a word, sentence, or phrase and the other opponent has to guess it correctly. Make sure that your word/words are spelled correctly. After choosing a word, sentence, or phrase, the person has to draw as many blank spaces on the paper as the word, sentence, or phrase has letters. For example:

HANGMAN would be _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Each letter has to be a blank. When it is complete, the other player can start guessing letters. If a letter is in the word, sentence, or phrase, fill the letter in the blank/s. If the player guesses a letter wrong, start drawing hangman. The more the player guesses wrong, the more parts are added to make hangman.

First incorrect letter: Draw the post hangman hangs on.

Second incorrect letter: Draw the head where the post sticks out.

Third incorrect letter: Draw a stickman body.

Fourth incorrect letter: Draw one stickman arm.

Fifth incorrect letter: Draw another arm.

Sixth incorrect letter: Draw a leg.

Seventh incorrect letter: Draw the other leg

To make the game last longer, you can add more parts to hangman, so the other person can have more guesses. If all the parts are drawn without guessing the word, phrase, or sentence, the opponent loses the game. If they guess the word right without all the parts drawn, they win the game. Then, it's the next players turn.
