Do you remember playing Hangman as a child? You probably played it with friends, using paper and pencil, but did you know you could play Hangman on the computer? And, did you know that you can play this game right here at BellaOnline?

Test your knowledge of Midwest USA by playing the Midwest USA version of this classic game. All the words used are related to the Midwest. Click on the link below to get started.

The number of blanks represent the number of letters in the word. Choose a letter by clicking the button next to the letter you want to guess, then click “Make My Guess”. If you’ve chosen correctly, that letter will be revealed. If you’ve guessed incorrectly, a part of the stick figure will be drawn. If you miss 10 letters, and the hangman is completely drawn, the game is over.

Once you choose a letter, you cannot use that letter again during the current game. The radio button will disappear, and the letters used will be highlighted. When you’ve figured out the word, you can guess each letter in the word to complete the game.

All of the words for Midwest USA Hangman appear in Midwest USA articles. All words are at least five letters long. There are five state names (this site cover six states, but one name, Iowa, is too short for the game); others represent people, attractions or facts from the six states that are covered in this section.

Be sure to try Hangman and other games at other BellaOnline sites as well. You can access other games, and fun activities such as sending online postcards, adopting a BellaPet, or seeing if the BellaBall really knows all, through links at the bottom of the Midwest USA Hangman page.

Look for other fun games under the Fun & Games link on the Midwest USA home page.

Take a break from work, school, or just surfing the 'net and give Midwest USA Hangman a try. A word of warning though - game playing can become addictive!

Enjoy!
