To get started, simply visit https://hangmanclash.com/ on desktop or mobile.

The mobile version.

You'll see your Vault at the top: with a soft currency balance call Coin on the left and a USDC balance on the right. Below this are several Brackets, where users can play for free or for on-chain rewards.

These are described in more detail on the Brackets page.

Tap the Play button on the Loosen Up bracket to play your first match.

The Spyre Matchmaking Engine makes matches based on various factors, including skill. In this example, you can see that just by playing (not by winning), you will receive Raffle Tickets. The winner of the match will earn 3 Coin, and it costs 2 Coin to enter the match.

Tap the Join button to start.

Once you enter a match, you will see a countdown for game start, as well as the word's Theme. Underneath will be empty spaces for the missing letters of a word, and the goal of the game is to solve the word.

Beneath the word, you will see the Boost Meter. This section is key as it is not only important to solve the puzzle, it is also important to maximize points by solving it with the correct timing.

A slider will move across the Boost Meter. To maximize points, tap on a letter when the bar is as close to the center of the gold section as possible.

Perfect Timing will award a correct letter the full 1000 points. Good and Okay Timing are awarded as your distance from the center of the gold bar increases. These scale the awarded points down.

Points awarded also fill the Boost Meter.

Here you can see the grey fill of the meter. The more points you score per letter, the faster it fills. Once it does fill, you earn a Boost. These are in-game items that can be used to help you solve the word or score additional points.

Boosts emerge from the end of the boost bar and slide into the Boost Slot. Here, you can tap on a boost to use it. More about Boosts can be found on the Boosts page.

Incorrect letters award zero points and deduct from your Health Bar.

If the Health Bar completely empties, you lose the round and progress to the next round. If the word is solved, however, you score an additional bonus before moving to the next round.

Points are also awarded for any health remaining at the end of a round.

A full match consists of a number of rounds, usually three. Both the round results and your total score can be viewed at the top of the page:

Finally, at the end of a match, your total score is submitted.

Click the Next button to progress to the match results page. Here you can see whether or not you have won the match.
