DESCRIPTION

This is yet another text-based implementation of the popular word game Hangman. In Hangman, you guess a word letter-by-letter. There is a maximum of seven wrong guesses. Each wrong guess will incrementally draw a figure of a man being hung. What's different about this particular variant:

  • Wordlist is searched from Games::Word::Wordlist::* modules

  • Phraselist

    Aside from words, phrases are also allowed. Non-letters will be revealed first. Phraselists are searched in Games::Word::Phraselist::* modules.

OPTIONS

--list=s, -l

Select word-/phraselist, will be searched in Games::Word::Wordlist:: or Games::Word::Phraselist::.

--min-len=i

Minimum word/phrase length. The default is 6 for word, 0 for phrase.
