	Movies - The Ring: Terror's Realm

The Ring: Terror's Realm is a video game developed by Asmik Ace Entertainment, and published by Infogrames in 2000. A single player survival horror game, it is based on the Ring series of novels by Japanese author Koji Suzuki, which also inspired the Japanese film Ring
(1998) and its American remake, The Ring (2002).

Reception

Reviews were generally scathing. C. Gavlas and K. Gavlas of The Ring World, a fansite dedicated to Ring, called it "a crude, clumsy Resident Evil-style survival horror video game", and "a pretty depressing homage to Ring." Those unfamiliar with Suzuki's works were equally unimpressed. The staff at IGN.com said "The lowest rung on the ladder of Dreamcast survival horror games, The Ring: Terror's Realm is just an average jaunt into the dark side" , while a contributor to the Planet Dreamcast website declared it "hands-down the worst thing I've ever experienced on the Dreamcast." Greg Wilcox of GameTour.com described it as "one of those games that will make you wonder what sort of legal or illegal substances the developers were taking while they were making this one. The game is a combination of bad and weird, mostly leaning toward the bad". Wilcox also noted that one of the Ring films he'd seen was, in his opinion, "a hell of a lot scarier that what's here".
