Strategy

If your opponent becomes aware that you are choosing letters based on their statistical probability, then they can adjust their strategy to choose words with the least probable letters. At this point it is better to choose letters with a lower likelihood.

Both players can learn their opponents strategy and adjust their own accordingly, eventually achieving Nash equilibrium.

Use our Hangman Word Selector to find hard words based on their statistical probability.
