Roman Hangman

Okay, so this isn't actually Roman hangman, but its probably about as close as you're going to get and works very much along the same lines as the classic hangman game.

You are a Roman centurion with a mission to cross the watery caverns by guessing the words that are hidden behind the clouds. Eh? Well, put it another way, you're a little Roman dude who has to cross the river. There is a clue to the word behind the clouds above them and you need to type in letters from your keyboard to guess the letters that are hidden.

For every letter you guess correctly, the soldier moves one stage across the river. For every letter you get incorrectly he drops closer to a watery grave. Oh, and don't take too long, or he'll drop down as a punishment. Still, probably better than being hacked to death by a Roman gladiator. Or is it? Discuss.
