Operating Instructions
- Choose a flat play area with enough room around the frame for players to stand safely.
- Assemble the frame and side panels if they are not already assembled, then make sure the spring-loaded release slider is closed.
- Separate the colored rings into two sets; one player or team uses one color and the other player or team uses the other color.
- Choose who goes first, then alternate turns, dropping one ring at a time into any open slot at the top.
- The rings stack from the bottom up in each column.
- The first player or team to connect four of the same color in a row wins: vertical, horizontal, or diagonal all count.
- There is usually no point scoring; play one game at a time, or keep match score as one point per game won.
- Strategy tip: try to control the center columns, build two possible winning lines at once, and block your opponent immediately when they have three in a row.
- To restart, hold the frame steady and use the release slider to drop the rings out carefully.
- After play, collect all rings and return the frame, slider, side panels, rings, and carry bag to the storage spot.
Have a problem?
- Release slider is stuck or rings will not drop
