Hello there,
I've found that changing up the variety of toys helps immensly. The best way to get a cat to play, is to engage their hunting interests. I would start off by buying a laser pointer. They can be had from $5-15 depending on your location and what's in stock at your local pet stores. Now, there so guaranteed way to tell if your cat will go after it, but many do. Another cheap and easy toy is a catnip stuffed toy. When introducing it, lightly rub the toy against the cats' cheek/whiskers mimicking a head bunt. If they like it you'll know. If you're short on cash and supplies, roll up some aluminum foil into a ball and roll it on the ground, when I was tight on cash I did this and it worked surprisingly. I would discourage dangling ropes, strings, etc, because this could make an outdoor/ex-feral cat prone to chewing electronic cords! Best of luck!
