Description

Word is a word guessing game that borrows elements from Hangman and Mastermind. The player must guess a five letter word chosen by the computer. After each guess the player will be told which letters are in the mystery word and which are in the correct position. There is no limit to how often can be guessed.

Guess the word.

The Good
The game generously confirms correct letters and letter positions after guesses. Otherwise, standard word guessing game.

The Bad
Nothing at all for a text game.

The Bottom Line
Hangman without the graphics.
