Lost and forgotten. A civilisation beyond our understanding and machines beyond belief.

Ring Worlds - their purpose was simple. To locate uninhabited worlds and bleed them dry. But then something went wrong. A programming fault? Possible... but irrelevant because hundreds of Ring Worlds are converging on our Solar systems devouring everything in their path.

With an entire solar-system to explore, RING WARS features superb 3D action depicted in the most detailed vectors you've ever seen.

Your squadron is scrambled and you call up NavCom to plot your attack. Your system planet chart is directed to your main display while the outside view is windowed simultanously on-screen. Multiple targets require cool calculation as you decide which presents the greatest threat.

Armed with an array of sophisticated intelligence gathering devices you can probe your enemy and engage. Your ultimate aim - to penetrate the RING WORLD diving deeper and deeper into its heart to deliver the killing blow. Can you escape before it kills you?

Review:

There are some interesting strategy elements with effective charts and maps but someone forgot to put the gameplay into the actual arcade sequences.
