Hasbro Gaming Risk, Classic Strategy Board Game for 2-5 Players, Family Games for 10+ Year Old Kids

Great looking box and storage components, although the huge piece of carboard that's there to make the board be leveled with the rest is a bit disappointing.Great game for a party, with lots of replay ability.Mostly its rolling dice so a very simple game with a small bit of strategy

Another fast paced card game out of a formerly long, tired old drawn out campaign type game. I would liken the transformation to that of the tedious monopoly board game to the monopoly deal card game. Hours distilled into mere minutes where ruthless takes a new turn and the possibility of playing to the best of three might still take less than an hour.If this game doesn't tap into the little megalomaniac of your soul then I'm afraid there is probably something wrong with you, and if indeed it does, you're not alone 😈🧨🌍💥

I’ve always loved risk, but never really had anyone to play with, sad times!So I’ve played variations on my phone all of which are great fun but nothing like the pleasure of crushing your opponents in the flesh!!!!I described the game to my 7 year old daughter and she liked the sound of the game, so I jumped at the chance to buy it. I did actually try to find it in a store but nowhere stocked it, thankfully Amazon did!I have to say I prefer the old playing pieces, which were shapes like triangles, rectangles and cylinders now they are soldiers, cavalry and cannons maybe an improvement on the cylinders actually as that was a pain if the board got knocked and pieces rolled everywhere! I just found them easier to count out and view on the board.There are now new games to play quick versions like missions where you have to capture your opponents capitals, or take control of a specified continent or 20 or so countries, to be honest You naturally gravitate to capturing continents anyway, so we didn’t bother on those in the end, a game would still span a few evenings!!Gameplay is as good as ever, and as annoying when you are losing that is!My daughter won the first game, well I had to engineer that one to keep her interested.She enjoys it, the wife not so much. Second game I won, third game my daughter triumphed again but by her own merit, she took on board to control Australia as soon as possible, I’ve also never seen anyone able to destroy massive armies or defend with so few troops.This is still a game that can take a long time to complete, so don’t be tempted to add your rules or keep the cards counters sets to a fixed amount, it does speed up the game when you can trade in a set of cards that then increase the next time a set is traded in, eventually you can get large numbers of troops which can rebalance the game quickly or mop up the board.One thing we are guilty of is for each new game we deal out the country cards, rather than each of us choosing a country one after the other, I felt it wasn’t fair at the start if you have never played before.All in all still a great game.

I have a few different Risk games, if I had one complaint - the figures are of a better quality in the other variants I own. Other than that this is a class board game.

The game is great. I used a YouTube video to follow instructions on how to play. You will probably need a good 20 minutes to get use to it but it’s quite fun and quick to play on the go.

Never played the board game but saw good reviews for this game - don’t regret it one bit, this has been our most played game this Christmas. Absolutely brilliant fun!

If you're a fan of both Risk and The Lord of the Rings, then this Trilogy Edition is a must-have for your board game collection. The game is fantastically designed, great meeple characters and a wonderfully illustrated game board that transports you right into the heart of Middle-earth.The gameplay itself is challenging yet exciting, with each player taking on the role of Orcs or The Fellowship. The added element of individual quests and the ring with its corrupting influence adds a new layer of strategy to the game, coupled with the fact you're fighting your fellow players as like in the original Risk, makes it even more intense.One of the best things about this edition is that it can be played with 2-4 players, making it a great option for a game night with friends or family. A large quest stack also add an element of replayability, as each game can have a different outcome.Overall, Risk: The Lord of the Rings Trilogy Edition is an excellent addition to any board game collection. Its thoughout design, exciting gameplay, and the immersive experience of exploring Middle-earth make it a truly unforgettable game. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves strategy games or The Lord of the Rings franchise.

Easy to set up.Take a little while to learn how to play.Good fun.Good value for money.
