Publisher's Synopsis
Hangman.
- A game for two players, X and O.
- The first player "X", chooses a word or a short phrase and the guesser, "O" must guess it before the unfortunate character is 'hanged'.
- There are 24 letter spaces.
- X should black out the unneeded spaces, leaving the correct number for their word.
- If they choose a phrase, they should also black out the spaces between the words of the phrase.
- The "O" begins to guess letters.
- If that letter is in the word, the host writes in all the places it appears.
- If that letter does not appear, "X" fills out a dotted line on the hangman diagram.
- At any point, "O" may guess the word.
- If they are incorrect, another line is filled out on the hangman.
- If the hangman is completed (which takes six missed guesses),"O" has lost.
- If "O" guesses the word correctly before the hangman is completed, "O" wins.
