Comments: this game will keep you entertained for a while , but after the second game you'll feel like your wasting your time. These "5 star generals are so easy"; i had a harder time defeating the one star generals. Very Very Very easy game for anyone who wants to learn the basics of risk. Overall the game could have been some what better

Comments: I downloaded the demo and filled a game with 6 players, myself and the 5 most diffucult computer generals. I lost exactly one territory the entire game, and that was one I left undefended with only 1 troop on it. The computer consistently battled the other computer generals until all of their armies were depleted. The result was that every time one of my turns came up I was looking at a board in which I was the only player with any territories with more than 1 troop. Took me 7 turns to wipe out 5 generals. Very dissapointing.

Pros: true to original game

Cons: The artificial intelligence is no good.

Comments: $20 down the drain. First ten games, even with highest level computer opponents, won easily every time. No internet link available - can't play on-line. I love Risk, and expect a game to last longer than 10 minutes with me an overwhelming victor each game.

Comments: This is a very good computerized version of the game Risk. I love the graphics and voice/sound effects. There are many options to choose from so you can play Risk the way you like it. There are also many generals to choose from. If you want an easy game, play against 1 or 2 star generals. If you want a challenge, play against a 4 or 5 star generals. The computer AI for the more difficult generals is programmed very well. The interface is very easy to learn and is user friendly. I had so much fun, I was surprised when my hour was over with. If you like the board game of Risk, you will definately like this computer game.

2 stars Great for about 20 minutes but not worth $20.00

Pros: Graphics, sound, set up, and play are nice

Cons: Way to easy, computer makes a lot of silly and stupid moves

Comments: Like I said in the title, the game is really fun for a few minutes, maybe even an hour but after that the game lacks all the challenges I find interesting games to have. I would reccomend saving your money until they come out with a better version.

Comments: It's a very fun and appealing game. It's as good as the game board version. It kept me really interested. The guys voice gets annoying when he talks so thank God there is a volume control. Overall a great game

Comments: As I said on my pros and cons, the game it self is a very fun yet hard for beginers. But on the video game it just doesn't give off the same apeal as chalenging your freinds and family to a fight. The graphics were only enough not complain. Then again I do design video game graphics my self. Sure play the game, it's more of an opinion any way!
