Hangman is an early example of the famous word game for a personal computer. It was released in 1978, as the same time as other versions for early micro-computers or first videogame systems like Atari VCS, APF MP1000 or Channel F.
|
|
|
|
It is not the first ever version of Hangman videogame, as it can be found on many mainframes or time-sharing systems in the 60s and 70s.
|
|
|
|
This Compucolor version is nice with a big drawn and colourful hangman. It uses words stored in files on disk.
|
|
|
|
This disk also contained two other games: Math Tutor and Two To Ten.
