A strategy game from Austria played on a segmented circular target and patented in the US in 1919.

Ringo was the brainchild of Freidrch Kleissl, an officer in the Austrian Navy.
I'm guessing he had high hopes for this invention of his, but it appears that World War One changed his life's path quite a bit.
It has been published by several game companies over the past century, and today is reproduced in books and on websites.
It a worthwhile little strategy game, and I encourage viewers to give it a try. There are similarities to other circular asymmetrical games, but it does have some unique aspects as well.
