The game basically revolves around making wild guesses as to what a given word might be (so you really don't have to know a lot of English if you are good at guessing). The word is given to you in the form of "?" symbols in the "Word" text box. You make your guesses by clicking on the alphabet of your choice. A clue is given as to what the word might be in the "Clue" box. The "Letters you've used" box, shows the letters you have already used up (not that you can't use them again, but why you would want to do that I don't know!).
If a letter appears more than once in the word, it is automatically put in all the appropriate places. You have 10 chances to make your wild guesses at the end of which, if you still haven't made out the word, you will be hung! Ha! Ha! Ha!
