Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
An excellent strategy game that never gets old.
Love the game but the dice seem rigged even in true random it seems to favor the player thats losing once we hade 23 men and the enemy had 5 we rolled bad the hole time and he got all 6s and 5s He defeated our 23 with 5 and he only lost one. This is just an example it happens a lot. From a Player who loves this game and plays the board game in real life its well made and is a amazing game. Please fix the true random dice thank you.
We love this game! It feels so much like the board game, and the Blitz mode makes it so a game doesnt last days! One suggestion, that Im missing, is the maps for some of the alternate games of Risk in particular, versions like Risk 2210 AD, which is our favorite version except for perhaps the original. Or maybe just adding the cards and generals from games like that as gameplay options on the maps you already have? Love what youve done so far! Thank you so much for giving us a true Risk app.
We love the game. We love the experience of playing against opponents from all at the world.
We have found no bugs in this game and no weird things in this game but we found some risk.
We love Risk it is so much fun taking over the world and defeating your enemys! We love how when you claim aTerritory your enemy makes a funny face! But over all this is a great game.
We really love the board game risk and when we need something to do we play against the AIs and sometimes we we h friends so if you like the board game youll like this.
One of our favorite games to play.
Great game. Cannot get it to log in with Facebook though since update.
This game is fun but there are a lot of glitches like the other day we couldnt make a game or join 1.
Single works great but every multiplayer match we go into we end up losing turns or completely kicked out of the match, tried on different wifi areas and our phone is relatively new idk how to fix this.
There is no way it is random in true die roll we are all was loseing 10 and taking 2and lose all the time.
Ive put in hundreds of hours playing this game and its honestly killing us that this new update is just a boost for cheaters. Previously you were able to check a players page with stats and get a pretty good idea if its a side account or bot. Which this game has always had a big problem with. And now you cant see anything. Even if they arent cheating we dont want to play a game with anyone that has quit out of thousands of games. A solid fix for this would be to change the game settings where you can set minimum and maximum rank to win/loss ratio.
Just like in other reviews, it is true. The bots in the game are set to target the weak and help the troop leading player win the game with zero effort. The strategy in this app is to do minimal work and let others battle it out. Matches are drawn out far too long because the bulk of people who play this game don't have a back bone and are too afraid to attack and lose troops. Because matches are drawn out people quit too often leaving most games lacking true competition and ethical game play due to the way bots are programmed. Most people who play this game refuse to attack bots as a strategy which in turn can even get to the point where is it a detriment to how they place in the app. Too many people would rather play for 2nd or third place by eliminating the weak rather than rallying together to take down the leader.
Our family plays together on different devices and havent been able to play a single game without someone being disconnected or unable to make any moves. The game works very well in single player mode. Rather frustrating.
On god we have never had less fun playing Risk. The game be disconnecting all the time and it game us a lame default username. Smh, stick to monopoly.
After the recent update, the numeral indicating how many troops we have on a territory now pulses intermittently over and over and over and over again when we are trying to think about which action to take next. This latest enhancement is incredibly distracting and ruins enjoyment of the game. Developers, why did you make this change.
This game used to be stable. Now we keep getting disconnected. Cant even finish a game.
Developers let politics dictate the game. They removed all Russian based maps. We already paid for those. Give us our money back.
Absolutely awful with disconnections. Randomly disconnects you from the game. And if you're ever disconnected from the game, just give up because the reconnection feature is even worse. Don't bother downloading until they fix this.
So many issues with this app, constantly! In the most recent update they took away to click on an opponent during a game to view their record and game history. Sweet update. Who is running User Expeieince over there? They should be relieved of their duties.
We had a 9 to a 2 and lost so we surrendered Immediately! Ill be damned to finish a game with the audacity to let trash odds like that come about.
The computer is incredibly dumb in this game. The ads are the worst and longest of any game.
Most recent update made it near impossible to find people to play in 1v1 capital conquest matches. We used to find matches all day long. Im lucky if we find one now. You guys really messed something up. Not sure what you did to the way games are found or searched for, but its not easy to find games now unless we remove all filters and just take one of the 3 or 4 games offered. Its as though everyone stopped playing, but we know that cant be. Fix the game, please. It was perfect before. Im happy to revise this to a 5 star review if you fix the issue.
Teach us how to play the game right.
Only for the bribes they offered for it.
Good game. The zombie invasion (last mini game in the training series) is really insane, and fun as all heck.
It was very chaotic on how you bought the premium edition that you had to buy tokens, and then exchange tokens for the premium edition. Afterward, the game was much more enjoyable without frequent ads for games that we had no interest in playing if they are going to continue using ads as a income stream for different games it would be at least nice to have targeted ads instead of showing the same garbage over and over again. Oh no, the game plays very well. We have had a few issues of sound disruptions, but these are have been minor and just changing menus cant often fix it. The game allows for quick play, which is nice but he just want to get through and not deceive dice roll over and over again lots of different mass make changes in the way that you play and some of the map add-ons do help keep the game original and interesting so for these reasons, we do get this a five star review. It was frustrating in the beginning of the game is designed and plays very well. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Great game, good competition. Only thing that stinks is its a pay to play.
We bought this years ago and it was good but they have made it so much better, more stable and fun.
Such a good game love playing it we have been known to play until our battery dies.
A game with excitement, thrills and making discussions that can give honor or take it away and thank you for all the fun.
What can we say, its Risk. Tried and true, with some nice innovations and game modes as well. Hopefully they add more Risk game types like same time risk from Risk 2, or cards and generals from 2210 in the future, but thats just a personal wish. As for the base game with several different modes, this is the risk game to have.
Wish it was easier to get the emotes :/.
Risk is a great alternative to social media or any other strategy game on the App Store. Great improvement to the original board game, setup is a lot quicker! Always play this with our friends and a great way to socialize and meet new people.
There are not many online board games available, but this fills that empty gap.
Super fun and we can step away in the middle of a game.
Fun smartphone version of the board game. Intuitive interface and smooth game play make for great fun and relaxation.
Typically Im not big on games like this but paying the few bucks to get unlimited games daily and all the different maps and play types makes this very fun especially if youre like us and get annoyed waiting for pvp games.
First of all, the dice seemed as if they were targeting us. One instance, we had 8 troops he had 4 and and we think we ended up with 1 troop and he had 4. Is it really fair? Secondly, we were thinking of the zombies. One zombie set on medium, one AI set on medium, and the zombie does more damage. Was it made that way? Finally, the AIs in general, we cant seem to find the difference between beginner and easy; they seem to be the same. Other than all that, Risk is a game worth playing. We are very happy with how it turned out, and we hope more improvements will be made in the future. We hope SMG responds to our questions. Best wishes, ghstgamer.
We have enjoyed Risk, even paid you money to join as a premium member. Then yesterday after a few games we were Capped from gaining battle points for playing your game? Seriously? Do the bits of code that become our electronic game pieces cost you something? Do you WANT us to play your games less by de-incentivizing us? Its a bit of a slap to those who have paid you for you to throttle us over something that costs you nothing. Youll get no more $$ from us and less playing time too.
We just downloaded the game today and so far so good.
We love risk but this version is the worst one out there. Ive come across hackers but our biggest thing is the lack customization unless you pay money. We know of better clone games with better customization and no need to pay anything. Oh and all the ads are a pain in the butterflies. This game is very good but lacks so very much.
The ads are long and even when you get to the skip ad button it takes you to the app store.
This game is fun and enjoyable. However, advertisements last forever, contain MULTIPLE buy us loops which are purposefully difficult to close. In addition, rewards are often cycled into an error loop leaving the user without either points or tokens for play. In short, this game is purposely written to misguide users to download other crappy games from within the gameplay of Risk. We would skip this game unless a deep Risk fan.
Love the game, play it every day. But the game won't start with phone in airplane mode. We can't play single player while flying. That makes no sense.
This is definitely a good game if youre just interested in playing risk. Our main complaint is with rankings. We consistently win games but overall ranking drops? Not sure what the issue is.
Game music continuously glitches after ads. Many misspelled words throughout the game. We thought Hasbro was better than this.
Cant skip adds. So you cant start a game.
One of our favorite games. The game constantly crashes like 1/3 of the time and then doesn't let you back into the game. If you could exit the game, send a text and then go back in consistently without the game crashes that would be good too. To be clear you needn't exit the app at all to get it to crash. It'll just crash during normal play too.
