How to Play Hook & Ring Toss (4-Player Edition)

🎯 Objective

Hook the ring more times than your opponents — and be the fastest to advance across the board.


🕹️ Game Modes

1. Head-to-Head

  • All players begin swinging at the same time.
  • Each successful hook moves your score piece one slot toward the middle of the roof.
  • The first player to reach the center slot wins.

2. First to Ten

  • Players take turns timing each other.
  • Each player hooks their ring 10 times.
  • Record each player’s time — the fastest wins.

3. War

  • All players start swinging at the same time.
  • Each successful hook moves your game piece one slot toward the middle.
  • Once a piece reaches the middle, that player becomes King.
  • As King, you can move toward opponents’ sections of the roof. If you land on another player’s space, that player is eliminated.
  • Multiple Kings can exist at once.
  • A King can be eliminated (“killed”) if another player moves into their slot.
  • The last player remaining on the roof wins the War.
