Hangaroo
Hangaroo game
Hangaroo is a word game based on the famous hangman game. The twist of hangaroo compared to hangman is that instead of hanging a man you hang a kangaroo. Don't worry, no kangaroos were hurt building this game...
Now seriously, the objective of the game is to find out what the missing word is. You do that by trying to guess which letters are in the word. Each time you guess a letter there are two options. If it's right - it's added to the word, and if it's wrong - your man (or kangaroo) is going another step towards it's end.
