How do I play hangman against the computer?

In hangman, choose You guess to guess the computer’s word, or Computer guesses to see how fast it guesses yours. Pick a level, and balloons instead of the classic picture if you like.

Step by step

  1. Open hangman.
  2. For You guess: choose a level (Easy gives eight wrong guesses) and press New word, then pick letters.
  3. For Computer guesses: think of a word, choose how many letters it has and press Start. Tap the squares where its letter appears and press Done, or press No.
  4. Switch Picture to Balloons for a gentler game.
