How to play

The goal is to reveal the whole word by naming letters while making fewer mistakes than your allowed tries. Just 4 steps.

01

Word

The hidden word is shown as dashes — one per letter. A theme or category points you in the right direction.

02

Letters

Name letters one at a time. If a letter is in the word, it's revealed in every spot it appears.

03

Mistakes

A miss adds a part to the gallows drawing. The number of tries is limited — usually six mistakes.

04

Result

Reveal the whole word before the drawing is finished and you win. Run out of tries first and you lose.
