This application is similar to the classic "hangman" game. Try to guess the hidden word or phrase by guessing one letter at a time until the entire puzzel is revealed or the maximum number of guesses has been reached.
Starting the application: To start the application, simply open the index.html file in a current browser.
How the game works: The application randomly selects a word or phrase. The letters in each word are represented in the Current Puzzle with a "_", so the word APPLE would be represented with _ _ _ _ _ (a dot would be used to represent a space). The user types in characters on the keyboard to make a guess. If that letter appears anywhere in the hidden phrase, those letters will be revealed. Using the same example, if the user types P, the Current Puzzle would show _ P P _ _. If you reveal all of the letters, you win! But if you don't get all the letters in 12 or fewer guesses, you lose.
After each round, a button will appear labeled "Start A New Round". Click this button to have a new word selected and reset the counters. The game will keep track of your total number of wins and losses.
Hint: This application has a "desserts" theme, so all of the puzzles are types of desserts.
