The other thing I don’t like about the game is that, while it divides up the players into “Good” and “Evil”, these sides aren’t balanced! The Evil side is better than the good side, because they have better starting territories. For instance, of the 11 fortresses in the game, 7 of them are awarded to Evil players to begin the game, while only 4 are awarded to Good players. Additionally, the two best regions on the map (roughly equivalent to Australia and South America) are both Evil. There is only 1 region that approximates Australia or South America for the Good player – so that means if there are 2 Good players then one of them will have to do without.

Various other editions have been released for PC, Amiga, Sega Genesis, PlayStation, PlayStation 2, Game Boy Advance, and Nintendo Switch. In 1996 Hasbro Interactive released a PC version of Risk that included a new variation on the game called Ultimate Risk, which did not use dice but rather implemented the use of forts, generals, and complex battle strategies. Risk II for PC and Mac was released as a 2000 video game which includes classic Risk as well as board and gameplay variations. In 2010, Pogo.com added a licensed version of Risk to its library of online games. An Xbox Live Arcade version of Risk called Risk: Factions was released on June 23, 2010. It includes classic Risk as well as a factions mode where players can play as Zombies, Robots, Cats, Soldiers, or Yetis. Players go around in a circle (as usual) until all Leaders have been placed. You cannot place two Leaders in the same territory. Leaders will give combat bonuses during the game. This strategy board game for 2-4 players makes a great choice for holiday gift giving, or a birthday gift for kids ages 10 and up Count the total number of territories you control and divide that number by 3 (ignoring remainders).
