The board game Risk was always a favorite game of ours to play when I was in college. It was so much fun. I haven’t played it in forever but when I found out that you can download a demo copy of Risk II, I just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to stroll down memory lane.

After playing Risk II, it reminds me how great this game really is. I may have to go buy the board game. No, wait. I already have it. I have the Lord of the Rings edition of Risk. Then why haven’t I been playing it? I really need to catalog my games sometime.

Risk II for the PC was a lot of fun. The graphics are cute, and I got some pretty good rolls while defending my territories. My strategy was bad going into the game. Next game I will know better.
