Hangman is a classic word guessing game where one player thinks of a word and the other player tries to guess it by suggesting letters. For each incorrect guess, a part of a stick figure (representing a hanging man) is drawn. The guessing player wins by correctly guessing all the letters in the word before the drawing of the hangman is completed. It's a simple yet engaging game that challenges players' vocabulary and deduction skills. Hangman can be played with paper and pencil or digitally, making it suitable for all ages and a popular choice for its interactive and educational value.
