The online hangman generator
Building your own online hangman game is one of the most recognizable and fun ways to get your educational activities going.
The hangman maker is super easy to work with and lets you generate words as well as sentences in the well known hangman format.
Randomize order of words
Hangman animation
Since not everybody will appreciate the well known and default Hangman animation, there are options to change this to a more friendly animation.
Ranging from the classic Hangman to rockets and flowers, all sorts of interesting 'progress' can be made.
Always show keyboard
Show correct answer
This will show the correct answer after all attempts have been used.
Disabling this will allow the player to try again since the player still does not know the correct answer.
Adding media
To liven up the deadly Hangman experience, you can add a bit of 'media' like an image or an audio file when the player completes the Hangman challenge.
This can easily be added per word from the Content-tab when activating this feature.
add special character panel
This Hangman generator even supports the input of foreign characters like ü and é by enabling the special character panel.
Do note that including these characters will make it harder to guess the Hangman challenge in question, since you go beyond the regular alphabet.
Hangman example
