Hangman_SG is a free and small word guessing game, usually played by two people.
Child-friendly, yet challenging, the program contains a list of 55,000 words carefully arranged into 17 families based on their frequency of use.
Using a secret formula which classifies them on letter frequencies the words in each family are also ordered into 10 difficulty classes thus providing the game with 170 levels.
There is also the option to read in external word lists, so for example, teachers could load a specific vocabulary for pupils to use.
NOTE: To run Hangman_SG on your Mac you will have to open a Terminal window and, after navigating to the game`s folder, issue this command from the command line:
python Hangman_SG .pyw
