Battleship

Hangman

The goal of this game is to guess the opponent's word before your man's diagram is complete.  One player thinks of a word and the other tries to guess it by suggesting letters.  The word to guess is represented by a row of dashes, giving the number of letters.  If the guessing player suggests a letter which occurs in the word, the other player writes it in all its correct positions.  If the suggested letter does not occur in the word, the other player draws one element of the hangman diagram and writes the letter on the paper so that it is not guessed again.  The game is won when the guessing player completes the word or guesses the whole word correctly.  The game is lost when the other player completes the diagram.
