An interactive game of Hangman for the command terminal.
How to play:
At the start of the game, a word (secret_word) is chosen for the player to guess, one letter at a time. Each guessed letter is recorded and the remaining letters are displayed at the start of each guessing round.
If playing the "hangman_with_hints" version, entering * as the guess will return a list of all possible matches in the wordlist based on the currently guesses word. See match_with_gaps(), show_possible_matches(), and get_guessed_word() for details.
Each game starts with three warnings.
During each guessing round, the guess is evaluated (invalid, incorrect, or correct) and each correcly guessed letter is revealed. If a guess is invalid (not an alpha character or more than one character) or it if has already been guessed (during each game), the player is penalized by losing a warning. Once there are no warnings left, a guess will be lost instead. See warning_penalty() for details.
Each game starts with six guesses.
For each valid, but incorrect guess (guessed letter is not in the word), the player will lose: * one guess for all consonants * two guesses for vowels ("y" is not a vowel for the purposes of this game). See guess_penalty() for details.
The game is over once all guesses have been lost or all letters in the word have been guessed. If the game is won, a score will be returned (see total_score() for details).
