3 ★ I love the way this game looks and the straightforward controls. But it has no cards like the original or the ability to start game by manually picking your own countries.
5 ★ Love it, grew up playing risk and I don't mind the rule changes, it's a great game if you take it for what it is. Completed all the missions except the final 2!
4 ★ I would suggest a more challenging Free Play. One that isnt easy to master once understanding the CPU motivation. Missions are a very clever add to the game, and keep me coming back. That being said, I really want to know why I cannot beat Mission Impossible. I have conquered Asia in two separate spawns and both times after I go to another continent I am told I need to conquer Asia first and I lose the game. Very frustrating as I believe I can beat the mission otherwise.
3 ★ Interesting game, has kept me occupied. Couple of things about the AI. It doesn't improve at all with level of difficulty. All the opponents play rather dumbly, relentlessly trying to make a Continent with barely a couple of armies. In one move they are on the verge of annihilation, but the moment they get 3 armies they try to take over N America. It's easy to win through levels once you realize how these armies work.
2 ★ No sound the other opponents go way too fast the game comes with no instructions or directions
2 ★ Button on the bottom right causes more grief than needed. If you press it thinking you just took a territory then you have infact ended your turn. Either move the location between Move All and End Attack buttons or have an undo button. Reinforce, if you click on a territory by accident then you can't undo it. If I haven't moved anything from that territory I expect to double click it to un-select that territory. 2/5 until you fix it. 4/5 if you can speed up reinforcement troop movement.
2 ★ Unfortunately not longer in development, got Android 10 and game in unplayable.
1 ★ Game play is completely off balance. Options to place players is limited. Random chance is calculated to favor the AI.
2 ★ I would like to share the following: earlier today I was playing and had 18 armies vs. 3, and LOST. Okay that is weird, but it happens. then 9 vs 2, LOST. Then 14 vs. 1, LOST. Okay, well I am pretty good and I can withstand when the computer has 4 armies, attacks my territory with 8 armies, BUT the computer wins REPEATEDLY (3 separate times!!!!). Then I said okay I will hole up and get 46 in a territory and blast through computer held territory. NOPE!!! 46 mine vs. 8 of computer resulted in 1 army of mine and 3 for the computer. So I lost 45 of my armies and the computer lost 5, that is a 9 to 1 ratio. Something is wrong with this game.
3 ★ I liked it,i plade the campaign,it was good until level 5.On the fith level it tells before u start the mition that all the other computers are on hard mode,they are only after u and that its in possible to beat.All i thouth was(yeah right,no problem) but it was a problem every frickin time.I would like a respond from the games designer please and thank u.
1 ★ this game must be using 1 die roll vs 1 die in every circumstance. I only played less than 5 games and i saw repeatedly a 2 troop unit defend and deplete several 4+ troop units surrounding. rhat would mean the average roll of each 4 dice would have to be less than 2 for there to be a 50% chance of this happening if it were 1 die for 1 troop. i believe most games do 2 die for 3 troops and 3 die for 5 as the max but even that is definitely not the case in this game. almost good
3 ★ Good features, bad dice rules, as others have said. It isn't possible the dice are implemented correctly with the 3-2 die attack advantage built into the board game. Failing to take over a country with a 13-2 advantage or even a 7-1 advantage is all too common in this game. Not even rare. I do like the speedy play and missions but won't play it with bad dice logic - just too frustrating.
3 ★ I think it does one thing really well wich is turning a 2 hour board game into a fast pased mobile app. However the hardest AI is still really easy and does not know what defense is. And the game lacks an online mode. And a home screen wich is wierd. Would be 4 star if it had online
5 ★ Simple, clean, fun... I've had this app off and on for years. I always like Risk, and this version is quick to play, with good algorithmic computer opponents to play against. Also, the challenges are a fun alternative to normal play ... Really nice app.
1 ★ This game sucks!! The minute the program realizes there's someone playing that knows how to play, another algorithm kicks in, and you never get your extra troops again!!! 3 troops every turn, you take 20 territories and conquer 4 continents, you get 3 or 4 troops!!! I tried it, and it was fun when it was new, worked right every time, gave me the troops I'd won. Then your game started cheating.
