What is it?
If you know how to play the board game, this is pretty straightforward.
If you don't know how to play the board game…um…go borrow it.
Ah, Risk. I remember back in the eighties, when I was a member of Mensa, we'd spend long evenings and sometimes nights playing this game. I tend to be sceptic towards computer conversions of board games, so when I found this on a freeware/shareware CD, I nearly passed it by, tried it just for nostalgy's sake and for a laugh, and found it just as addictive as ever. Others seem to think so too: It is one of the most popular downloads on this website.
The implementation is unspectacular, but nicely done. Up to three people can play together, even over Modem, the computer takes over the rest if there are less. AI isn't bad. Well, maybe the documentation could be a bit less vague…
