blooming awesome, July 06, 2008 Reviewer: Liam beresford from Radcliffe, Manchester, Lancashire England
7 of 7 people found this review helpful Its a great strategy game and after playing the risk 2 you won't wan't to go back to the normal boardgame. the best part is is that you don't have to spend about half an hour setting up. the only bad thing is that you never seem to want to get off it. grnded. other than that it is a great game for those who love turn-based strategy and the battles are awesome. 5/5

6 of 11 people found this review helpful WOW, where to start. Lacking everything from smooth game play and/or a quick, simple to use game-face, this version of Risk has been by far the worst yet. I've had an opportunity to play a few of these free trials and risk 2 provided no real rhythm. With its constant interruptions of whats happening, like I don't know, its risk people, not that hard to figure out. If your looking for a game to sit and go this is not the one for you, but then again maybe you enjoy irritating pop-ups from the computer telling you what you need to do next. One good thing, and I mean one , about this game is that it offered the ability to allie with the computer during game play.

Well, right off the bat I knew it was going to be a great game because it was risk! great graphics, and game play is awsome!
~*~LIKES~*~
I loved how it showed the men fighting, that was a great feature, also how you could make alliances, that helped me alot ;) I liked the different views as well, and the globe was pretty cool. The three different types of games were AMAZING! I liked Clasic the best though. Also, the way you could choose colors and names was just another great feature. The voices were pretty sweet, and the instructions were well layed out (even though I didn't really need them).
~*~Dislike~*~
Who am I kidding, theres nothing to dislike about this game!
~*~Conclusion~*~
GREAT GAME! I recomend for ages 5+ or 4 or 3 or 2. hey, whenever you learn how to use a computer, thats when you should play it ;)

5 of 7 people found this review helpful Risk has long been my favorite game. I like the concept and competition. From graphics and feel this game is quite good; worthy of the original board game but there are some real draw backs and missed opportunities.
1 - Other PC versions of the game offer you many different maps to keep you interested, even additional facilities and options.
2 - The ability to automate the dice rolling; it is so tedious if you are a person more interested in the game play rather than the minutia of the original. Make it quicker.
3 - ooooooo sooooooooooo slooooooooow. With a dual core processor and still i wait for 'things to happen'
4 - Smart Army placing rather than click, click, click . . . .
Yet, all said and done, possibly when version 3 come out, this may be a good game if the author focuses on making the game play quick, easy and customizable first and then the graphic gratification.
