Become a war hero by leading your armies against many enemies that America fought throughout history. Begin by fighting the French and Indian War, battle through both World Wars, the Vietnam War, the Iraq War and five more wars that have shaped American history.
If you've ever had trouble finding people to play the board game Risk with you, then you'll love this unique, historic rendition of Risk with a built-in computer opponent!
Each map begins with some great historical information about the war you will fight. There are even links to Wikipedia to read more. Your armies will be arranged on the maps just like American and enemy armies were during the actual war.
Strategically add new armies to your territories at the beginning of each level. Then launch as many attacks as you want on neighboring enemy territories, providing you have enough armies to defeat them! After you've finished your attacks, you can move your armies to brace yourself for the computer's strategic turn.
When all of the enemy territories are yours-or if the computer has conquered all of your territories-victory is declared. Reenact each war with four difficulty levels.
This game is a great educational tool because it combines important American history with a very entertaining and strategic game! The fun game is a meaningful visual tool that will help the information stick in kids' brains. This game can provide tons of strategy-building fun for people of all ages!
Let history come alive now with American History Lux!

This game is very realistic and is very truthful on the events that happened in all of the wars featured in the game. The bottom line is that this is a great game. and all of you should play it.

Well considering I am a huge fan of the game Risk, I thought this game was fun. I enjoyed the quick resolution of battles and thought it was a nice touch seeing different maps. The historical information in the screens leading up to the game itself was very informative and accurate. The ONLY reason I did not rate this game a 5 is because it is basically the exact same game concept as Risk, which hurts it’s originality. If you like Risk, this game is definitely worth trying!!!!
