Description

Hangin' Man is a fast-paced hangman game where you race against the clock!
Guess as many words as you can before time runs out. But be careful, wrong guesses build your hangman throughout the game. Skip the tough ones (with a small time penalty) and aim for a high score!

🎮 How to Play?
- Guess as many words as you can in 5 minutes.
- Each wrong letter adds to your hangman and continues throughout the game.
- Use the refresh button to skip a word (costs 5 seconds).
- Your score is based on your streak, word length and how fast you solve it.
- The game ends when time’s up or the hangman is complete.

đź’ˇTips & Tricks:
- If you're a beginner or English isn't your first language, start with easy mode.
- Start guessing each word by vowels.
- If you're stuck for more than 15 seconds, consider skipping.
- Avoid risky letters early (like Q, Z, X).
- Stay calm, fast guesses only help if they’re correct.
