A more in-depth explanation of this game is this, for One Player you have to start the game by clicking on the "One Player" button on the home screen, this will bring you to the game, here there will be a few different buttons. One is called "Go to Start Page" which will bring you back to the starting page to select another game mode or come back to review these rules. Now there is also a "Press for a new word" button, this button will, as said give you a new word to guess. Now at this point, I think it would be a good idea to explain how this game runs. You are to enter a letter into the input box labelled "Guess Letter" to guess a letter in a chosen secret word, there are also options for hints, which will give you the category of the word, for example, "NBA Teams". These hints are used to make it easier to guess the word. As you guess the word will begin to show itself to you, you may see a few underscores on the page when you start, and don't get confused, that is just the word you are guessing, it is there to help track your progress and give you hints based off of the formation of the word and letters/spaces in it. As you guess letters they will begin to replace the underscores until you guess the whole word, where you would win the game, and have the options to play again with a new word, try player two, or go to the home page. You can also Guess words when you are sure, though the guess has to have the same amount of letters as the word, to make sure you aren't just forfeiting the game. A correct guess of the word/words will result in an automatic win, as an incorrect guess will result in an immediate loss of all lives. You have a limited amount of lives to guess these words, with each incorrect guess resulting in a loss of lives, and when lives reach 0. You have lost, the incorrect guesses are also tracked in the Word Bank: alongside your Wins, and Losses, on the bottom. Now For two players, to start you click the Two Player button which can be found on the home page, then you will have two options, a category input box, and a word input box. Now this is important, if you want to put in a category you will need to do that step first. And remember to enter the correct category and press "Enter" after you type it in, to ensure its successful loading. Now, if you choose to not enter a category it will create a hint itself, out of a random letter in the word you propose. After that, you can enter a word, this word will be used essentially the same as for One Player, the other person will have to guess this word with either a provided hint or one of your choice, and now remember. Please play fair and make appropriate hints. Don't put Hockey Player as the category when the word is Stephen Curry.
Summarization:
**Game Instructions**
**One Player Mode:**
To start the game in one-player mode, click the "One Player" button on the home screen. This will take you to the game interface, where you will see several buttons. One button is labeled "Go to Start Page," which will return you to the home screen to select another game mode or review these rules.
There is also a "Press for a New Word" button that will generate a new word for you to guess.
In this game, you will enter a letter into the input box labeled "Guess Letter" to guess a letter in the chosen secret word. Hints are available to help you; they provide the category of the word (e.g., "NBA Teams"). These hints make it easier to guess the word.
Initially, you may see underscores representing the letters of the word you are trying to guess. As you make correct guesses, the underscores will be replaced by the letters you have guessed, allowing you to track your progress. Once you guess the entire word, you will win the game and have the option to play again with a new word, try the two-player mode, or return to the home page.
If you are confident, you can also guess the entire word. However, your guess must contain the same number of letters as the word to avoid forfeiting the game. A correct guess of the word will result in an automatic win, while an incorrect guess will lead to the loss of one life. You have a limited number of lives, and as you make incorrect guesses, your remaining lives will decrease. When you reach zero lives, you have lost the game. Incorrect guesses are tracked in the Word Bank at the bottom of the screen, alongside your wins and losses.
**Two Player Mode:**
To start the game in two-player mode, click the "Two Player" button on the home screen. You will be presented with two input boxes: one for entering a category and another for entering a word.
If you choose to provide a category, make sure to enter it first and press "Enter" to load it successfully. If you do not enter a category, the game will create a hint from a random letter in the word you input.
Once you have entered the category (if applicable), input the word that the other player will need to guess. The guessing mechanics are the same as in one-player mode, so ensure that you provide appropriate hints. Please play fair and avoid giving misleading hints; for example, don't use "Hockey Player" as the category if the word is "Stephen Curry." An NBA Player.
Enjoy the game!
Hangman 1 & 2 Player
Start Game by clicking either the One or Two player options.
The One Player option will give you a random category and word, which you will have to solve youself, and the two player option will let you select the category and word for a friend to play.
How to Play
The goal of the hangman is to figure out the hidden word before the stick figure is hung, or in this case until you run out of guesses. Participants guess letters to help identify the word, when correct they will become closer to solving it. And when wrong, we will be that much closer to losing. They have the option to play alone or collaboratively. The game proceeds until the players exit the word correctly or exhaust their guesses, leading to the stick figure's execution. When you guess a letter correctly you will be shown that part of the word, giving you hints for the next guess. For example: If I guess a "p" and the word is "Apple" you will be shown "_pp___" which will help you figure out the remaining letters of "A", "L", and "E". Some other tidbits of information you might need to know is that there are hints in the form of categories, like "movies" or "NBA players" and you can also create your own in Two Player mode. One Plater mode is where you are presented with a random word and have to guess it, and two-player is when one person chooses the category and word, whilst the other person has to guess it. Overall it is mostly self-explanatory, Good Luck!!!
Optional Category (Important)
Choosing a category is optional and if not chosen will simply result in a harder game for the player. You are willing to choose one or not. Though the category is used as a hint if you do choose to utilize this feature I highly recommend you use it correctly and make accurate categories for fair play. Also make sure you press "Enter" to confirm your category, if you don't enter it THE CATEGORY WILL NOT WORK, to be sure just see how the category is left as a placeholder in the input box after you enter it.
