❓ Frequently Asked Questions
▶How many wrong guesses are allowed?
You get 6 wrong guesses before the hangman is complete and the game ends. Each incorrect letter adds one body part to the drawing — head, body, left arm, right arm, left leg, and right leg.
▶How is the score calculated?
Each word you solve earns points based on how many wrong guesses remain — the fewer mistakes the higher the bonus. Harder difficulty levels multiply your points. Build a streak by solving consecutive words to maximize your score.
