What this maker can do

Hangman maker

Type the words players guess letter by letter. Ten wrong guesses and the drawing is finished.

Pick what gets drawn

Premium

Eight of them — a gallows, a rocket, a flower, a hot-air balloon, a school bus, a snowman, a sandcastle or an ice cream. Same ten steps, a different picture at the end of them.

An on-screen keyboard

Premium

Phones and tablets always get one. Turn this on and desktop players get it too, so letters can be clicked rather than typed.

A progress bar

Premium

Fills as the guesses run out, so players can see how much room they have left.

Picture and sound clues

Premium

Give a word a photo or a recording instead of a written clue — useful for vocabulary and for younger players.

Keep the word hidden

Premium

The word is shown once the drawing is finished. Turn that off and a word nobody guessed stays a secret.

Shuffle the words

Deals them in a different order every time, so the set is not learnt by its sequence.

Special-character keys

Premium

A panel of accented and non-keyboard characters, for words a player's own keyboard cannot reach.
