Create a secret phrase guessing game similar to hangman in which the user guesses letters in a partially hidden phrase in an attempt to determine the complete phrase. The phrase to be guessed needs to be selected randomly from a list of at least 10 phrases. The clue needs to be presented to the user as a series of asterisks replacing letters to be guessed. Spaces must be in the appropriate locations. Somewhat like Wheel of Fortune be sure when a letter is guessed you fill in all matches regardless of the case.

The minimum requirements are as follows:

A GUI interface of some type is required for this project.

(1) The program must be an application that performs some function. It can be a game or a business application.

(2) The program must include at least one decision and at least one loop. Most projects of any depth will require more.

(3) You must make use of at least one array. This array can be one or two dimensional. It can be an array of objects or a simpler array. You are also welcome to use parallel arrays.

(4) You must have a user defined class and instantiate objects from that class. Be sure most of the “work” in the program is done using methods efficiently, including static methods in the actual application.

(5) The user interface must be easy to understand. There should be no question what is being asked of the user. Remember those using the program will not be as familiar with it as you are. A GUI is required.

(6) Storing and accessing data in a database or text file is required.  However, make sure you handle the problem in the most appropriate way.  If you have an idea for a project but are not sure how to incorporate storing data ask.  Most games or applications with any depth will require data to be stored and retrieved at a minimum.
