Practice your binary skills, play hangman

This video of college kids arguing over their digital hangman game is sort of adorable. They made the thing, too. From the UCLA Game Lab:

In this digital form of hangman, players use the five buttons to input letter guesses in binary form (1 = A, 26 = Z) to find the randomly-chosen five-letter word. Audio and visual cues indicate correct or incorrect letters, previous guesses, remaining guesses, etc. Whiteboard squares allow players to keep track of their correct guesses.
