  Sliding ring game - Patent 4519611
This game provides a set of rings for a corresponding number of players, a mallet for driving the rings on a course frictionally sliding across a smooth planar surface and a set of removable thin markers adherable to the playing surface to lay out a course of predetermined difficulty with a sequence of scoring stations.
The game is adapted to different skill levels by variably selecting the size of the scoring area at different markers such as by circles of different size, or rings of different size.
The game objective is to run the course scoring at all sequential markers by placing the ring in scoring position, reaching an end marker "poison" and eliminating all other rings by striking them by a mallet stroke projection in turn by a player when his ring is "poisoned".

 INKPOT#87 CLASSICAL MUSIC REVIEWS: RING (The Game) - The Legend of the Nibelungen (Cryo Interactive)
Even by the usual high standards of graphical adventure games, the opulent detailing and surface-texturing of the game world is as eye-catchingly astounding in execution as it is in conception and design, highly reminiscent of the fantasy art of Boris Vallejo.
The game has been designed such that the chapters in their correct order presents an increasing grade of difficulty, which is recommended for players new to this type of game.
The game manual is also skimpy and there are no troubleshooting cards or "goodies" like a map of the game worlds or anything, so either Cryo are either very confident of their quality control or otherwise the exact opposite.

 Eternal Ring game review
Eternal ring is a First Person Shooter/ Role Playing game hybrid, similar but not a polished as Deus Ex or System Shock (I've heard it is similar to Kings Field although I've never played that game).
The entire game is in real time, there is no 'random' battles like traditional Console RPGS, requiring you to have quick fingers as well as patience to build up your character.
For a RPG it is way too short, you can beat the game in around 20 hours or so, and replay value is non existent, you are required travel 90% of the Island to complete the game.

 Hands On: War of the Ring Battle For Rohan | Critical Gamers - CriticalGamers.com
Before long we were elbows deep in one of the most engrossing war game experiences we've ever had, and nobody in our group noticed (or cared) when the clock stuck ten, then 11, 12, and 1 am.
Ring supports up to four players, and since the Expansion's box also says "2-4 players", we assumed that the Battle for Rohan would let us play in a similar fashion.
We understand that the game has a steep learning curve and a lot of rules, and we shouldn't expect to understand everything right away - but that's all the more reason to clearly summarize the changes.

The problem with a lot of the sites is that they are poorly designed—they might have a good game here and there, but they are buried under so many links (and dead ends) that my son would get lost on the site, trying to find the game.
Ring Catch is very simple: use the mouse to move Wubbzy and try to catch falling rings on his tail.
My favorite is "Pocket Full of Stars" The games are simple yet entertaining, with very little in the way of words a child may or may not be able to read (only whats in the simple instructions) so thats always a plus.

When Bassanio admits that the ring was a gift from his wife, who made him promise never to part with it, Portia claims that the excuse is convenient and used by many men to hold onto possessions they would rather not lose.
In devising the game in which Bassanio sacrifices his wedding ring, Portia once again proves herself cleverer and more competent than any of the men with whom she shares the stage.
The ring game tests the boundaries of the homoerotic relationship between Antonio and Bassanio, for Antonio claims that his friend’s love for him should “[b]e valued ‘gainst your wife’s commandëment” (IV.i.

The Ryzom Ring is a set of tools for editing and sharing player-made "maps" that are customizable with terrain, monsters and NPCs all run by individual players.
The level of depth sought in Ryzom Ring even goes as far as conversations between NPCs, which can be scripted by the players who are also given the power to take control of a conversation between an NPC and a player to enhance the responses.
The story of the Ryzom Ring (or how it came to be) is rather an interesting since it was originally touted as part of the original Saga of Ryzom release.
