<!-- Not an example, there is no star involved: * In the ''[[Dungeons & Dragons]]'' setting [[Planescape]], the city [[Sigil (Dungeons & Dragons)|Sigil]] sits atop a gigantic spire that the Outlands rotates around, which is portrayed as a Niven Ringworld that all the other planes have representative cities upon. -->
* [[Terry Pratchett]] intended his 1981 novel ''[[Strata (novel)|Strata]]'' to be a "piss-take/homage/satire" of ''Ringworld''. Niven took it in good humor and enjoyed the work.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.lspace.org/books/apf/strata.html|title=The Annotated Pratchett File v9.0 - Strata|publisher=Lspace.org|access-date= 2010-06-28}}</ref>
* The plot of the [[first-person shooter]] ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' for the [[Xbox (console)|Xbox]], [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]], and [[Mac OS X]] also takes place on an artificial ring structure. Similarities to ''Ringworld'' have been noted in the game,<ref name="literary">{{cite web|url=http://xbox.ign.com/articles/709/709122p5.html|title=The Influence of Literature and Myth in Videogames|website=IGN|first=Douglass C.|last=Perry|date=2007-03-17|access-date=2007-12-10|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090220080109/http://xbox.ign.com/articles/709/709122p5.html|archive-date=2009-02-20}}</ref> and Niven was asked (but declined) to write the [[Halo: The Fall of Reach|first novel]] based on the series.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://bs.bungie.org/2003/03/the_halo_author_1.html#000320|title=The Halo Author that Wasn't|publisher=[[Halo.Bungie.Org|Bungie Sightings]]|date=2003-03-05|access-date=2007-10-04}} – Condensed version of information found at [http://www.larryniven.org/chatlogs/chat060402.shtml Niven's own site] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090220160506/http://www.larryniven.org/chatlogs/chat060402.shtml |date=2009-02-20 }}</ref>
* "All in Fun" by Jerry Oltion, in ''[[Fantasy & Science Fiction]]'', January 2009, mentions a faithful big-budget movie adaptation of ''Ringworld''.
* In [[Ernest Cline]]'s 2011 novel ''[[Ready Player One]]'', one of the sectors of the OASIS, the worldwide [[virtual reality]] network that is the novel's primary setting, is mentioned as being an adaptation of ''Ringworld''.
* The 1987 novel ''The Alexandrian Ring'' by [[William R. Forstchen]] takes place on a ring much like Niven's.
* Episode 5 of ''[[The Book of Boba Fett]]'' features a station called Glavis that is shaped like a ring and features sun shades in much the same way that Niven's does.
