How to play

  1. You're shown an English clue and a row of blanks — one per letter of the Spanish word.
  2. Tap letters to guess. A correct letter fills its blank (or blanks); the word is read aloud when you solve it.
  3. Each wrong letter costs one of your six guesses — run out and the word is revealed in red.
  4. Solve six words per round, and aim to lose no guesses for a flawless round.

Questions

Is this Spanish Hangman free?

Yes — it plays in your browser with no sign-up. Sign in only if you want to save the words you solve to your review deck.

How do accents and the letter ñ work?

The keyboard includes ñ as its own letter. For accented vowels, guessing the plain vowel reveals the accented form too — so guessing ‘a’ fills in an ‘á’.

Can I play Spanish Hangman by topic?

Yes. Use the theme picker to draw words from a single category — animals, food, the home and more.
