Description

Turn your review sessions into a game! A discreet interactive hangman widget sits in the corner of your screen during study sessions.

How it works

  • Mistake ("Again"): Adds a stroke to the hangman and consumes 1 life.
  • Good answer ("Hard", "Good", "Easy"): Recovers 1 life and builds your streak.
  • Game over (6 mistakes): Triggers a brief cooldown screen before restarting — without kicking you out of your review session.

Features

  • Streak & Milestones: Dynamic streak counter with subtle animations.
  • Live Session Stats: Tracks accuracy, cards reviewed, and your personal best streak.
  • Customizable Appearance: 6 built-in color palettes (Aurora, Ember, Jade, Midnight, Sakura, Ivory) or pick your own custom accent color.
  • Configurable Penalty: Optional cooldown timer upon losing (0 to 30 seconds).
  • Sound Effects: Light audio cues (can be disabled).
  • Dark Mode: Fully styled for both light and dark themes.

Settings

Access configuration via Tools > Hangman settings… to adjust theme, position (bottom-left or bottom-right), penalty duration, and sound effects.
