This Is the BEST!, Nov 22, 2007

by Devlin (Kansas City, MO USA)

I love RiskII It’s a Flip from board to PC.  It has stunning battle techniques and picture. Theres no bothering setup/cleanup involved.  It’s got great new options and graphics. I liked playing it because it had awesome pictures and details. I also enjoyed friends or computer enemies. The extra options are useful for if you get bored of normal play. Only if I had the full version…..

Risk 2 Review, Nov 20, 2007

by Conner (Wenatchee, WA USA)

Risk 2 puts some new twists on the biggest classic of all strategy board games but still remains true to the original. You can play in Classic mode using the rules of the Risk board game, Same-Time mode where all players attacks are decided simultaneously or Tournament mode which is a mix of Classic and Same-Time games. Risk 2 lets old fans enjoy the Risk game they have loved for years with refreshing new touches that will give them even more enjoyment. This updated Risk will also attract a new legion of fans

The game was pretty cool,although to me it was difficult to understand at first.I think I like the board game better but it was still pretty cool.I would say it was worth it to download.

Great Game, Nov 17, 2007

by Zeres (Finland)

I like the game over all, it’s the best strategy board game in earth. But I wanted to play risk with my friend in network, but we can’t play because you can’t add computer players. Would be best game if you could add computer players to network game. 4/5

One of the greatest revolution, Nov 06, 2007

by Nicaleus Tan (Singapore)

Hi to anyone who sees this review of mine. I’m a 27 year fanatic of Risk. Started playing risk in the era of board games. There’s much revolutionary changes between board till online nowadays. However, trust me. Nothing beat this version dated today. What really amazed me is the 3D deployment on the battle. This really entertained me while fighting a battle where you can witness the falls on soldiers, explosion of cannons. I can’t comment any further on the positive factors of this game. One advice from me, play it and feel the revolution and you will understand the thrill and feeling which I’m experiencing now. If not, you might be wasting time staring at different search engine for "good Risk game" result. Don’t waste your precious time, start now and feel what me and the rest are experiencing here.

The Best Strategy Game - Risk, Nov 02, 2007

by Damian L. (Carnegie, Vic AUS)

This is the best strategy game I have played. Even AOE2 is not as good!

Good but one frustrating aspect, Nov 02, 2007

by Mark (UK)

Great game to play when in the classic version however when in tournament mode this can become tiresome. The AI is pretty good but when making alliances do not put too much trust in the computer players sticking to them.  Graphics and battle scenes are good but become repetitive (Risk 1 at least let you auto roll).

There is a new mode with approximately 15 different tournaments utilising a combination of instant attack or classic approaches but you have to go through them in order.  Problem is that even if you complete 3 in a row there is no start from where you left off (ie you got tired and want to save)- you have to start a new tournament from number 1.  Additionally you will note that the distribution of players in each tournament remains the same no matter how many times you start it(and because you have to start them again I have been there several times).  These faults detract somewhat from what is otherwise a very good game.

Excellent game, Oct 23, 2007

This game is great for strategy lovers.  The graphics are very good and the new real time game is very challenging.  If you loved the original risk, you will love this one as well.  The only downfall is that the game needs more aggressive AI generals to play against and the tournament aspect of the game can take a great deal of time.  Despite this, I would give the game overall a thumbs up.

This Game is Awesome!! A Must Play!!, Oct 03, 2007

by H. May (Hartford, AL)

I have played the board version of this one and believe me the computer version is twenty times better! Plus no wasting time setting up or putting away! This game gives you all the same features as the board game and more! it is just great! I loved it! Even my children enjoyed watching the battles! So easy even my seven year old could do it! Which for me is a plus when I can do something on the computer with the kids that we can both enjoy! Thank you for making such a great and intriging game! I can’t wait to play it again!

Great Risk Adaptation, Sep 26, 2007

by Diatain (St. George, UT USA)

I played the board game and loved it.  I played this and loved THIS even more!  All the variants I would play while playing the board game are actually on this game.  Very very fun and DEFINITELY worth the price!

Strategic Game, Sep 07, 2007

by Tyler Jones (Longview,TX)

This game is full of strategy & action put together. There are a nice amount of options. Risk 2 is a gigantic step from risk. You just can’t beat this game in strategy. It has some extras that are nice.

Sweet Game, Aug 25, 2007

by Keegan Allen (Farmington, MO USA)

this game is great if you are interested in board games! I downloaded it and bought the trial in a second.  I played it and then I ran to the store and bought the real board game.  I love this game!!!

Some Helpful Information, Aug 08, 2007

by Hayden Kearns (Hokitika, New Zealand)

I reckon that the game is very very good. I enjoy the strategy that’s involved in playing the game to conquer the world.  Even though I don’t own it my friend’s do however and any chance to play it I take it. here’s a hint look for the continent which is mostly yours and then try to take over it. Also if you want to beat Wellington have five computer oponents playing and then you have a better chance. I did this and bet Wellington. my favourite thing about it is "same time" when you do this it becomes even more fun. Try playing tournament it is very fun because you can’t choose the settings and Generals. I think this game is suitable for both kids and adults. It is indeed worth buying.

To conquer the World is not that simple, Aug 04, 2007

by Carlos Mario Flamenco (Santa Tecla, El Salvador, Central America)

This game is very addictive every time you play it. One of my personal strategies to conquer the world is to find an ally, i mean, someone weak who can not destroy my army but easy to be destroyed so that i can conquer his territories and win the cards. I prefer to conquer Australia because it is difficult for others to enter my territory. I love this game and i have it on board also, so that me and my family, we play every single weekends. Remember to conquer all the territories as soon as possible but…"To conquer the World is not that simple" 

Decent Game., Aug 01, 2007

by Jol (Boston, MA USA)

Good game, but not that good, the general flow of the game is rather slow, the graphics are not the best, but for a game made seven years ago, it’s not bad.

I recommend The other Risk game, better flow and better graphics, the entire build of the game is better, the interface and instructions.

But without comparing, Risk II is a pretty good game.

This game is completly awesome, Jul 25, 2007

by Akubabac (Enschede,Netherlands)

This game not only enables us to build our creativity…it also helps in knowing the world better.It can be played by any age of people. I found this game better then some games like The age of empire…..This game is really coool

The Best, the Butt Kicking, Risk 2 !!!!1!, Jul 23, 2007

by nano

Risk 2 has a whole new load of game features as well as modifications to the map. you can add new areas to conquer as well as take away areas. You can also select how much of the world is to be conquered and change how many reinforcements each continent gives you when conquered. The graphics are amazing in the game and the battle scenes are pretty sweet. I played this with my friends every day for about four hours and it never got old. People would nag us on about letting them play. I had so much fun dominating the world on the computer. It was fun seeing each battle.

by james walsh (st paul mn.)

As soon as I downloaded this game I could not stop playing. my 10 year old and 8 year old daughters have become venerable adversaries, with only a little strategic coaching.

tournament play is amazing. Just try to dominate over 7 experienced, unpredictable relentless generals. This game blows away the board version.
