ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a ring and hook game played by swinging a metal ring attached to a flexible line towards a pair of hooks projecting from a box mounted on a wall. When the ring successfully engages the hooks the ring closes an electrical circuit, activating a light and buzzer connected in parallel within the box. Attachment of the flexible line to a ceiling permits automatic return of the ring after a missed attempt, and the location of the box and the point of attachment of the line, together with appropriate selection of line length, prevent the ring from striking the front wall of the box. The degree of difficulty of the game may easily be varied by rotation of one or both hooks.
