What is Risk?

 

 

Risk is a turn-based game for two to six players, and is played on a board depicting a stylized Napoleonic-era political map of the Earth, divided into forty-two territories, which are grouped into six continents. Players control armies, with which they attempt to capture territories from other players. The goal of the game is to control all the territories—or "conquer the world"—through the elimination of the other players. Using area movement, Risk ignores limitations such as the vast size of the world, and the logistics of long campaigns.

You need to create a login, but it's free.  There are different types of games, but I like Risk the best (Classic World map).

This game is a lot of fun.  I like playing the Real-Time games because sometimes players join but they're not online or too slow.  In this mode, if a player doesn't act, they will automatically forfeit. 

 

Also, you get to play with players all over the world.  Try it out and maybe I'll see you online!  Have fun!
