What is Risk
Possibly the most popular, mass market war game. The goal is conquest of the world.
Each player's turn consists of:
- gaining reinforcements through number of territories held, control of every territory on each continent, and turning sets of bonus cards.
- Attacking other players using a simple combat rule of comparing the highest dice rolled for each side. Players may attack as often as desired. If one enemy territory is successfully taken, the player is awarded with a bonus card.

Cansa cuando se alarga demasiado el juego, por esto mismo solo 6 estrellas.
Recuperado de mis juegos de cuando era peque. Tiene todo aunque lo jugué mucho.

A strategy game that once you understand the rules is quiet easy to play and fun with the right people. A little of strategy and the fact that the meeples are the soldiers gives you that extra that makes it feel like a complete good game.
Un clásico de todos los tiempos. Bastante aburrido para mi gusto, porque apenas hay estrategia, y todo depende de interminables secuencias de tirar dados.. pero no hay que quitarle mérito al juego. Fue la puerta de entrada a este mundillo para muchos. Lo tengo porque nos lo dejó la prima de Gema hace ya unos cuantos años (en el 2.005 o así) y al final he optado por añadirlo a mi colección. Parece poco probable que en algún momento vayamos a devolver el juego (Ella se quedó con un trivial nuestro, que conste). Vendido el 05/01/2015 a Alberto MErino, a través de la BSK, en un lote de 13 juego
Un juego divertido donde se sufre planeando las futuros turnos, genial para tomar por sorpresa a los amigos que están aprendiéndolo a jugar
Un clásico ya superado por muchos
