Lets see if you guys can figure this one.
It is a very old Apple II adventure game , it would be on the lines of playing dungeons and dragons with stick figures.

It has to do with finding some special rings , 7 rings or something.
You would do battle with all kinds of baddies , spiders ect.
It was hard but the game was one of my favorites.

I thought it was called quest of the 7 rings but I could be wrong.
I dont think it was color.

It had graphics similar to Wolfenstein , maybe not as elaborate.

No it was physical rings , and no it wasnt lord of the rings heh.

And it wasnt a single person but you had a small party of adventurers you controlled , very d&D ish

Thanks for posting that link. What a cool walk down memory lane! I remember being in 3rd/4th grade and my friends and I getting into these really intense Lemonade Stand games on the Apple IIE in our classroom. Seems SOOOO primitive in retrospect. But it definitely taught some important math and entrepreneurial skills.
