About Hangman on Suvi
This page opens straight into Hangman for two on one device. One of you types a word or phrase (it stays hidden as you type, with a clue if you like), then passes the phone or tablet across. The other guesses one letter at a time, and every wrong letter adds a part to the drawing. When it's over, swap and play again. Nothing you type leaves the device.
How to play
- Look at the category and the blanks: each blank is one letter, and the gaps split the words.
- Tap a letter on the keyboard. If it's in the answer, it fills in every place it appears.
- A wrong letter adds a part to the drawing. Seven wrong letters and the game is over, so start with common letters.
- Stuck? A hint shows one letter wherever it appears. Solve today's word to keep your streak going.
Controls
On a phone or tablet: Tap letters on the on-screen keyboard. Hint sits at the top beside the category.
On a desktop: Type letters on your keyboard, or click them on the screen.
Tips
- Start with the vowels E, A and O, then the common consonants T, N, S, R and L.
- Look at the shape: a short word on its own is often A, I, THE or AND, and a word ending in a blank after an apostrophe is often 'S or 'T.
- Use the category: a proverb usually has a familiar rhythm, so a few letters can bring the whole thing back.
- Letters like J, Q, X and Z are rare. Save them until the word is nearly there.
- A hint never costs you a wrong letter, so it's a good way out of a tight spot.
Questions
- Is the daily Hangman the same for everyone?
- Yes. There is one word or phrase a day, the same for every player, and it changes at midnight in your time zone. The share card shows how you did without giving the answer away.
- Can I play more than one?
- Yes. After today's word, practice as much as you like, any category or one you choose: animals, food and drink, jobs, countries, proverbs, sayings and more. Practice never touches your streak.
- Can two people play?
- Yes. Choose Two players: one of you types a word or phrase, which stays hidden, and passes the device to the other, who guesses it. Then swap. Nothing you type leaves the device.
- How many wrong guesses do I get?
- Seven. Each wrong letter adds one part to the drawing: the rope, the head, the body, two arms and two legs. Right letters cost nothing.
- How do hints work?
- A hint shows one letter wherever it appears in the answer, and never counts as a wrong guess. Your first hint each day is free, and while Suvi is new more are on us, with no ad to watch.
- Is it free?
- Yes. Hangman is free with no account and no download, and it runs in your browser on a phone, tablet or computer.
