How to play with this list
- One player picks a word from the list in secret and draws a blank for each letter.
- The others guess one letter at a time. A right letter is written in every place it appears.
- Each wrong letter adds one part to the drawing: head, body, two arms, two legs.
- Guess the whole word before the sixth wrong letter to win. Then swap who picks.
