TurboRisk

Game Description

A World Ripe for the Taking

Everyone knows about Risk, the classic board game of world conquest. It’s a game that encourages strategy, requiring you to think carefully about where you place your soldiers and how you distribute them. Many have fond memories of spending the wee hours of the night waging war against their friends’ armies all over the globe.

Unfortunately, as you grow older, it can get more and more difficult to gather a decent amount of people together to play it. That ends now with TurboRisk, an electronic edition of the old game that can be played from the comfort of your own computer!

Play Classic Risk

If you’re familiar with Risk, then you’ll be at home here since all of the classic rules apply with TurboRisk. The game begins with every player distributing his or her troops on the map. Players then take turns invading one another’s territories, with each climatic battle being determined by a roll of the dice.

There may be no dice involved in TurboRisk, but a random number generator simulates the process accurately and far more swiftly than you ever thought before.

Play against up to ten computer opponents.
Allows up to ten humans to play via hot-seat.
Trade in cards to gain access to more reinforcements.
Commence relatively safe standard invasions, or select the “Do or Die” option for more high-risk, high-reward engagements.

Computer Convenience

If Risk is known for anything, it’s that a single game can last for a very long time. Players know that keeping the board set up exactly as it was for days on end can be difficult. Thanks to its new electronic format, TurboRisk makes playing an extended game a much simpler process.
