Ultimate Hangman
SCORE: 72
I downloaded Doodle Hangman Free a few months back, and then found
Ultimate Hangman was the ninety-nine cent paid version of that game
without the advertisements. Something that is odd is Doodle Hangman Free
does not easily recommend Ultimate Hangman on the iOS platform. The
names being different can lead to a bit of confusion too. The themes in
Ultimate Hangman are Doodle Hangman, Chillin' Chalk, Christmas Snowman
and Flower Power.
Ultimate Hangman is a pretty neat app in terms of letting us guess the
words. Every incorrect letter chosen brings the poor person to their
demise. Miss too many, and they die. Meaning game over for the family
member playing it. Multiple family members can pick their own words and
play against one another in Ultimate Hangman. Which is a blast, and went
viral here at Family Friendly Gaming.
There is some cartoon violence in Ultimate Hangman. Not just the
hangings, but also if you guess the word and they attack the guy trying
to hang them. My personal biggest problem with Ultimate Hangman is there
is no hints, clues, or subjects. There are four letters to guess. I had
to hope that I guessed one of the letters right, and then it gave me
some insight into what the word is. I lost some games because I did not
guess enough letters right to figure out the word. Some guideline like:
"person, place, or thing," would have been extremely helpful in Ultimate
Hangman.
The music in Ultimate Hangman is pleasant. I enjoyed listening to it
while trying to guess the words. I also like the four different themes
in Ultimate Hangman. If I got tired of Doodle I could go over to
Snowman. That really helps the longevity of this downloadable hand held
video game. There are some neat animations in Ultimate Hangman. After
playing for a few hours I had seen all of the ones the Doodle guy would
do.
I had fun playing Ultimate Hangman on the iPhone and iPad. The multiple
player option is one of the coolest features in Ultimate Hangman. We
gave one another clues as to the word we were using. Ultimate Hangman
can be used in a family game night. Maybe even have your very own family
tournament where family members trade off with who they are playing
against.
