Getting an error although my code seems to be exactly what is in the video example.

Not sure why I'm getting this error:

treehouse:~/workspace$ javac Hangman.java
./Prompter.java:15: error: reached end of file while parsing
}
^
1 error

Here is my code:

public class Hangman {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Enter amazing code here:
      Game game = new Game("treehouse");
      Prompter prompter = new Prompter(game);
      boolean isHit = prompter.promptForGuess();
      if (isHit) {
        System.out.println("We got a hit!");
      } else {
        System.out.println("Nope");
      }
    }

}

error: reached end of file while parsing

is a problem with your curly braces. From the code posted, you have the correct opening and closing braces, but I suspect if you examine the entire file, you will find an errant brace somewhere.

Also, I have found the workspace to be a little buggy at times myself. Make sure everything is saved before you run it.

Also note the error is in the Prompter file!
