Free old school computer gaming experience

HangARoo is a word game for Windows XP and older. Similar to games like Hangman or Wheel of Fortune’s phrase-guessing style, HangARoo provides users with endless fun and entertainment. Available for decades, it’s a tried and true game that still brings enjoyment to all that play it. Not only is it fun, it’s simple to learn so you can get started right away for an addictive and even educational gaming experience.

Classic gaming at its best

The object of the game is simple—guess the phrase. With a selection of letters to choose from, players must guess the correct ones without getting three errors. Three errors, like in Hangman, causes the Kangaroo to be hanged, so it’s important to take your time and make smart choices. With over 8,500 terms and phrases, there’s no shortage of fun to be had and with 120 categories, you’ll be sure to find one that you’re most familiar with. The phrases even include “Did You Know?” facts to increase its educational purposes.

Modern-day hangman

Hangman may be simple enough in design to play it with a pen and paper but HangARoo offers players a more interactive experience. Hear the kangaroo speak, learn new facts as you play and become locked into its colorful graphics and fun sounds. For users who still run Windows 98 up to Windows XP, HangARoo is a throwback that is fun to play and a throwback to simple gaming days. If you are looking for an alternative, similar game, we recommend you to download Word Seach! for free.
