Take eight differently colored rings, some new color sequences, and a little ingenuity, and spice them up with a chunk of speed. Comes out – “Oh my sweet”, a fun, fast-paced game of skill and a very social one. A combination of skill and coordination is required here!
Helvetiq kindly provided us with “Oh my ring” for review.
This has no bearing on our rating!
Ten fingers and eight rings – what now?
Each person receives eight rings of four different colors, distributed on all fingers except the thumb. The colors for each finger are chosen randomly, but each color only occurs once in one hand. Then you can start.
The cards give instructions on the color sequence in which the rings should be reproduced on your fingers. There are combinations of one hand or both hands and to make matters worse there are instructions on how to perform them, such as reversing the color group, keeping the hands under the table, or memorizing the color card. The rings can be moved by holding the fingers together and moving or sliding from one hand to the other.
The rings can be held with only one finger and not moved with two fingers. If the rings fall – this often happens so quickly – the mentioned rules also apply to picking up the rings.
Whoever completes the task first calls out “Ya Raneen” and receives the card. The first player to collect five cards wins the game. Up to four people can play in this variant.
The alternative is two teams of two playing against each other. Everyone on the team offers a helping hand. Now both people on the team are trying to solve tasks with one hand in the same conditions. Chaos is pre-programmed here.
