Connect Ring
A round twist on connect-four: discs fall from the rim to the centre of a wrap-around ring. Use bombs and anchors, climb a seven-rung opponent ladder, solve a daily puzzle, or play a friend.
Connect Ring is a gravity drop game played on a circular board. Ten spokes run from the rim to the hub, and each spoke holds six discs. You drop a disc down a spoke, it falls toward the centre and stacks outward, and the first player to connect four in a row wins. Because the board is a ring, lines wrap around the seam: spoke ten is next to spoke one, so rows, spokes and spiral diagonals can all cross it.
Every match gives each side a few special discs. A bomb lands like any other disc and then blasts away every enemy disc touching it, and the discs above them drop inward, which can open a winning line for you or hand one to your rival. An anchor can never be blasted and protects the discs beside it. Match settings switch between Standard, Wild (two of each, unlocked after you beat Comet) and None for a pure ring game. Seven opponents wait on the ladder, from Dust, who drops at random, to Eclipse, who searches many drops ahead, and each win earns XP, coins and new disc colour sets. A new win-in-two or win-in-three puzzle arrives every day, with stars and a streak counter.
It suits connect-four fans who want something fresh, and for pass-and-play with a friend. Tip: save your bomb for a moment when it removes a blocker and a second threat at once, and keep the anchor to protect a key row.
How to play
Tap a spoke to drop a disc down it. Discs fall to the centre and stack outward. Connect four of your discs in a row, along a spoke, around a ring or on a diagonal. The ring wraps around, so lines can cross from spoke 10 to spoke 1. Arm a Bomb to blast neighbouring enemy discs, or an Anchor for a disc that cannot be blasted. Beat each opponent to unlock the next, and solve the daily puzzle by winning within its drop limit.
