It's fun and challenging, but has limited words
HolybrideOctober 15, 2014
Pros
it's fun to play, but the questions are a bit weird, example name of girls / boys which I think should not be included in a hangman game.
Cons
Sweden becomes Swedon in this game, and Dimitri (boy's name) becomes Domitri. And lots of questions are repeated several times, so it becomes less challenging.
Summary
Worth to try. Don't worry, it's fun to play.
Boring interface which doesn't use a keyboard.
WaynemcdJune 21, 2006
Pros
It appears to use minimal system resources, has a reasonable selection of words.
Cons
The interface is bland. Words tend to be Americentric. Also, I'd never thought of a towel being an item of clothing.
