About Wordfright

Step into a world of fear with a dark, twisted version of the classic word game 'Hangman' reimagined. 

From the creators of Greg's Deadly Draft comes a truly terrifying experience...Trapped in a cold storage room by a madman with murderous intent, you must solve your way out of the situation by correctly guessing words. Choose a subject that will lead you down a dangerous path. Supply power to the generator while simultaneously dealing with the Hangbuddy.The Hangbuddy was created to do everything in it's power to distract you from the task at hand, make sure to keep an eye out for what shenanigans it might cause...

Wordfright is the typical Hangman game with a twist. In this game you are solving typical Hangman puzzles while slowly being lowered over a bunch of circular saws. If you do not solve all the puzzles in time, you become mincemeat. Also an evil puppet is scurrying around trying to get you killed. You can click on the puppet to drive him away. There are around 10 categories of words to choose from, and you must solve 5 of the categories (levels) in order to unlock a 3 minute stealth minigame with the chasing evil puppet to finally win the game. + The concept is interesting + The game is cheap - There is no adventure in this game, 99% of the game is solving Hangman puzzles on a strict time frame. - The puzzles on medium and hard are too difficult to solve with the given time limit. Too tense and difficult to actually have any real fun. Overall: 5/10

I mean I can't say I didn't get what I payed for, games literally spelled out for you in all the promotional material. It's Hangman with some extra bells and whistles and a funky little dude in a Noose who want's you Ground into a fine Sausage. They tried to make it more engaging by having him spawn in your room sometimes and making you look around to click on him when you see/hear the queue, but it's not difficult to find him and I found it more annoying than anything else. Still, for 3 Bones you can't really go wrong with it, plenty of categories and the ability to create your own. Not Bad.

Even on easier difficulties it was still very hard. Setting everything on normal settings didnt really help with the game performance either it could use with some tweaks. Really unfortunate I had good expectations for this game its unfortunate that i didnt like it as much. IT HAS A CUTE MASCOT IM SO SAD

A very fun and unique version of Hang Man! Yes it has jump scares, but they are pathetic. Replay Value After you finish the game: 0 / 10 This game is more entertaining if you have friends watching you play and are wanting to help. Overall Rating: 2.2 / 5.0 Things that Could make the game betters listed below - Add Different Rooms - Add More Game Mechanics - Add A Story - Add Different Jump Scares - Needs A Steam Workshop for Mods
