Play Hangman with songs from the New Zealand iTunes Top 100
Play Hangman with song titles from the New Zealand iTunes Top 100 feed. This edition reflects a smaller but distinctive market shaped by Kiwi pop, indie, hip-hop, rock, electronic music, Māori and Pacific context, Australian overlap and global hits.
Each round uses a song title from the configured New Zealand chart feed. When that feed changes, the available puzzle titles can change too; Play Hangman does not create or rank the chart itself.
New Zealand music Hangman with the iTunes Top 100
This New Zealand edition uses the configured iTunes Top 100 feed for New Zealand as the source for song-title puzzles. It can mix Kiwi pop, indie, hip-hop, rock, electronic music, Māori and Pacific context, Australian crossover and global hits.
How the New Zealand iTunes chart feed works
This page uses the configured iTunes/Apple chart feed for New Zealand. Play Hangman does not compile the chart itself; the game uses song titles from the feed as puzzle material.
Song titles are not manually translated on this page. The title in the game comes from the New Zealand iTunes chart feed in the form supplied by that source.
Why local music charts change the game
What makes the New Zealand edition different is the scale and cultural mix of Aotearoa’s music market. Local artists can appear beside Australian releases, global pop, Pacific influences, indie, hip-hop and electronic tracks.
The New Zealand edition is usually English-heavy, but it can still include Māori words, Pacific music context, Australian crossover and international releases. The actual puzzles depend on the configured feed, not a fixed playlist.

Why play hangman in English
- You get fast rounds built around recognizable hit songs.
- The English page keeps the gameplay clear and easy to replay.
- The game works on desktop and mobile without downloads or sign-up.
As a practical starting strategy, E, A, O, T, N, R, S and L are often useful for English-language song titles. Some New Zealand titles may include names, Māori words, featured artists or remix labels, so common vowels and repeated title patterns are useful early clues.
No lyrics, audio files or downloads
This game uses song-title metadata from the configured New Zealand iTunes chart feed. It does not use lyrics, does not play or host audio, and does not provide music downloads.
Apple, iTunes and Apple Music trademarks belong to their owners. Play-Hangman.com is not affiliated with Apple and is not endorsed by Apple.
Artists and song styles you may recognize
For New Zealand music-market context, think of artists and styles associated with Lorde, BENEE, Six60, Crowded House, Stan Walker, L.A.B, Drax Project, Kimbra, Fat Freddy’s Drop, Shapeshifter, Broods and Neil Finn.
These names are examples of New Zealand music-market context, not a fixed playlist and not a guarantee that they appear in the current game. Each playable title depends on the configured feed.
Why New Zealand song titles are fun for Hangman
New Zealand chart titles can mix straightforward English pop phrasing with indie, reggae-influenced sounds, electronic music, hip-hop, Māori words, Pacific context and Australian crossover.
That gives the game a different feel from the Australian page: some titles are globally familiar, while others carry a more local Aotearoa music identity.
Local music vs international hits
New Zealand’s chart can include a strong local voice, but it is also closely connected to Australia, the US, the UK and global streaming culture. Local artists can sit beside international pop, dance, rock, hip-hop and K-pop releases.
The exact title pool depends on the current configured feed and any cache used for reliability. Examples on this page are context only, not claims about current chart positions.
