Which almost forces me(:-) to point out that my book 
contains a complete worked example of a games 
framework using hangman as the final example. 
But it does prototype the game first without 
any OO stuff. I intend putting the source on 
the 'useless python' site once I comment it
(for the book the comments were in the text...)

The chapter in question also suggests some other games 
that fir the framework - minesweeper, mastermind, 
rock,paper, scissors...

Speaking of which the 'useless python' site may be a rich source of ideas...
