Hangman: instructions and practice
Choose a round of Hangman and settle into its rules. Find all letters before eight incorrect guesses. A correct guess does not reduce the remaining allowance. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Use the opening round to become familiar with the layout. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.
A small practice goal
Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart. Make the next step deliberately.
What you are aiming for
Find all letters before eight incorrect guesses. A correct guess does not reduce the remaining allowance. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.
How a round unfolds

Learn from a sample situation
In LETTER, choosing T reveals both T positions. It uses no incorrect guesses. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Look for the relevant detail.
Notice this detail
Selecting the same letter twice has no effect. Check the rule before repeating the action. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
