Premium Review Risk: The source of family feuds (533 words)
by katyandsam - written on 09/09/08 (Very useful, 52 readings)
Rating:

Risk is a truly wonderful game. Basic idea of the game; Before I actually played this game, I thought it was going to be hideously complicated. This is mainly because the boys on my corridor used to disappear off to play risk with an air of superiority while we girls tutted at their geekiness and watched diagnosis murder and ...

Risk is a super game which is all about using strategy cmbined with a bit of luck. The idea of the game is to secure world domination by invading different countries until you rule the world. There are drawbacks to this game. First off it is very complicated and certainly we still need the rules to hand every time we play. Each game can ...

12 Armies against Kamchatka! Watch my glorious Green troops sweep across Asia, knocking aside the feeble Pink and Blue forces of my opponents!! *insert Imperialist cackle*. My first experience of Risk was as an innocent 10 Yr old, well versed in the arts of such entertaining Family Games as Monopoly and Scrabble, but naïve to the all ...

I have always harboured latent desires to conquer the world and the only thing stopping me was the fact that my patent for a super laser and mind control ray was never taken seriously by the useless bank clerk who would not authorise my home improvement loan to fund the building of a prototype. Guess who will be up against the wall in front of a ...

INTRO: Ok, now anyone who has bought RISK knows that the Manual is quite hard to understand. I am going to try to make them easier to understand here and hope that I succeed. It is worth noting, that depending on what edition of RISK you buy (I have about the last 4 editons) the rules do change slightly depending on what happens. ...

PROLOGUE. ------------- A long time ago I purchased the game ?RISK? to add to my vast collection of board games. I read the manual which made absolutely no sense; therefore the game was left and forgotten about. Then a few nights ago we had visitors who spotted the game, they dragged it out, dusted it off and taught my husband and ...

Great game (186 words)

World domination, who wants it? Without wanting to have to copy straight out of the rule book to explain the game, you get given a certain number of armies which you place on a board of the world and attack other countries with to dominate. Sound simple? It pretty much is. Now I must admit board games for a uni student may sound odd ...

The Game of Risk, the World Conquest Game, has been around for years, generations probably. However, as I have had a remarkably sheltered life, I first played it two years ago, with some fellow expats, down under. I was hooked, and I had to purchase a copy for myself. The game is made by Parkers, and available in all major toyshops, for ...

If ‘Monopoly’ is the game of choice of Richard Branson wannabes, all aspirants of Genghis Khan must surely salivate at the prospect of playing ‘Risk’. With the aim of world domination, it is one of those strategy games that can be played by those aged 8 to 80, but can only be truly understood by those with a first class ...

Would you like to rule the world? Would you like to dominate it? Do you like conspiracy and backstabbing? If so: Well congratulations, this is the game for you! Before the game starts each player is given a certain amount of countries around in the world, and also a certain amount of soldiers to place in them. I am not going into details ...

I shall take the risk to write an op about this fabulous game. I will describe the rules rather briefly, because they are not so important: each game is played differently and every player has his own tactics. I will try to talk more about what makes this game so special, what makes it different from all other games. The beginning of ...

The thought of World domination has crossed the mind of many great leaders. Hitler, Genghis Khan, many Roman leaders, the British and many others have attempted to own the world but none have succeed. Now, for all those megalomaniacs out there, Risk provides everyone with the opportunity for global domination. OK, so Risk is only a board ...

In these days when the PC is an all conquering monolithic beast which carries all before it, the concept of BOARD GAMES seems to belong to the past in the same way as roast beef on Sundays, eiderdowns and jumpers for goalposts (Dear old Ron Manager, what a treasure!) However, nothing can really replicate the feel and style of a real live ...

Crowned Review Be top dog, not dog meat (2556 words)

If your popgun doesn't compete with your opponent's howitzer, this is the op for you. Fed up with being made into dogmeat at Risk? I would be too. So, as with my opinion on chess, my purpose here is not to describe the game, or convince people not familiar with it to go out and buy it. Other reviewers have already done that, ...

Worth the risk! (193 words)

The object of risk is to tactically manoeuver your pieces around a board by destorying your opposition (the other players) until you have completed your objective (which you recieve at the start and only reveal to the other players once you have completed it). The game takes alot of time to complete and although there are literally ...
