How do I Create a Hangman Game?

"Hangman" is a simple game that can be played just about anywhere. The object is to fill in the blanks of a word or phrase. Players guess letters one at a time and for each incorrect guess, they are pushed one step closer to being "hanged." This game can be modified to accommodate all levels of skill from children who have just learned to read and write all the way to scholarly adults.

Instructions

  1. Create the Board

    • 1

      Draw the gallows at the top of the page. The basic format is a stick version of gallows and a small loop to signify a noose.

    • 2

      Choose a word or phrase appropriate to the age or reading level of the game players.

    • 3

      Draw out the phrase using dashes. For instance, if the answer is "Hot Lunch" write, "_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _"

    • 4

      Write out the alphabet at the bottom of the page as a reminder of which letters the guesser has left to choose from.

    Play the Game

    • 5

      Sit where all players can see the paper.

    • 6

      Allow the person to guess a letter. If the guess is correct, fill it in on the board. If the guess is for a letter not in the puzzle, cross it out on the bottom of the page and draw one body part on the hangman.

    • 7

      Continue the previous step until the puzzle is solved or the hangman is completely drawn.
