Hangman

Hangman with your chat

The classic word game, run by your chat. In voting mode everyone types a letter and the most-voted one is played each round. In lobby mode viewers take turns in a shuffled order. Six lives, built-in word lists in English, German, Spanish, Portuguese and French, and your own word list if you want one. The Daily word is the same in every chat that day.

How a round works

  1. 1

    Pick a mode

    Voting mode lets the whole chat decide each letter together. Lobby mode gives each viewer who typed !join their own turn.

  2. 2

    The round opens

    A word is hidden, six lives are on the board, and the timer starts โ€” 20 seconds by default.

  3. 3

    Chat guesses a letter

    Viewers type a single letter. You can change your mind until the timer expires, and the most-voted letter is played.

  4. 4

    Wrong letters cost a life

    Six wrong letters end the game. In lobby mode three turn timeouts in a row also cost a life.

  5. 5

    Instant win

    With instant win on, anyone in chat can type the whole word at any moment and take the round outright.

What viewers type in chat

<letter>A single letter A-Z. In voting mode your vote counts toward the round and can be changed until the timer ends.
!joinLobby mode only: enter the turn order before the game starts.
<the whole word>With instant win on, guessing the complete word wins immediately โ€” from anyone, at any time.

Streamer settings

  • Two ways to play

    Voting mode for a big chat playing as one, lobby mode for a turn order among the viewers who joined.

  • Your words

    Built-in lists in five languages, or paste a custom comma-separated list. Custom words are masked on screen so the answer never leaks.

  • Timers that fit the chat

    5 to 300 seconds per round, or no timer at all in lobby mode.

  • Subs-only lobbies

    !subonly limits !join to subscribers and mods when a lobby round gets too big.

Questions streamers ask

What is the difference between voting and lobby mode?

In voting mode the whole chat votes on a letter every round and the majority is played. In lobby mode only viewers who typed !join play, one turn each, in a shuffled order.

How many lives are there?

Six. Each wrong letter costs one, and in lobby mode three consecutive turn timeouts also cost one.

Can chat guess the whole word?

Yes, when instant win is on. Any viewer can type the full word at any point and win the round for everyone.

Can I use my own words?

Yes. Paste a comma-separated list in the lobby โ€” it is stored in your browser and masked on screen so chat cannot read it.

Does it support German?

Yes. The word list follows the site language, and a mod can switch with !de.
