Rise Wars (strategy & risk) for Android
I own half the board and I'm getting 3-4 reinforcements a turn with all of my enemies getting like 15. One of the CPU had only one territory and the game gave them 20 reinforcements
Impossible to play online, needs a play now option to match players instantly, otherwise people join games and then don't wait for players and don't play when match begins. There's always a bad apple that ruins the match. Other than online matchmaking, excellent game.
I destroyed the computer on easy a couple times so decide to put it on hard. I had 15 guys in a territory and got attacked by a dude with 23...fair enough...but the dude did not lose one person so he was able to just about wipe out my whole continent. In a separate game I was holding down South America and the AI had 3 other continents. Every turn I would run through those three continents so he wouldn't get his extra men. Then on a random turn he received 53 men and wiped me out.
At first..... I hate this terrible instrouctions. Now I realize how to play I found out I suck at risk and am still addicted to the app!!!!! But I am confuse on the multiplayer setting.
I can accept bad luck and occasionally having a bad run of dice. But when the CPU player can beat 20+ attackers with 1 defending army in multiple games can't be right. I roll 3 dice, CPU player rolls 1 die 20+ times and I lose every single roll. Something has to be broken in the game mechanics
Playing against the computer or friends sharing the same device works fine and is fun. Playing online however always seems to strand in other players (who forgot /exited / were kicked out of a game? ) not responding and stalling the game.
Dice rolls are horrible. 20 armies against 2 and loose (often) but computer can attack with same amount of armies and not loose a single roll (often). Not to mention the stupid mobil strike adds after every turn. Pure crap
The instruction are hard to understand. You need to walk us through by showing the steps in a more basic way. Think about the new-comers that is learning your way of talking and thinking. Also, your dice phase does not work. Your put in a attack number then it ask for another attack and the you have to put in some defense numbers. Why not have the dice roll themselves?
Fun game, the ads are an interruption, but I don't begrudge a dev getting paid. Unfortunately, one of the ads served recently breaks the game. It takes you to a screen that orders you to rotate to an upright position, but never moves forward. You have no choice but to abandon the app, your game, and any progress you've made.
A very bad game, full of bugs. If you are on top 10, the owner of the app cancel your account. A lot of fake accounts. Accounts get advanced ahead of others by the app owner. This game should be banned
I have had no trouble with the AI. They don't play the game smart. The online server is tough to deal with some times. Constant connection issues. The notifications in a 10 min per turn game often come in after time has expired. Many times I make my move only for it not to be recorded and the AI makes moves for me. When the game actually responds to your play it is a perfect version of the game. Unfortunately more often than not it's a let down.
The CPUs role of the dice is either a walk over or a devistating blow. CPUs get winning steaks that can take out a army of twellve with one dice. This has only happened once to me but one man will take out four men very often. Apart from this it is a great game and i would recommend it any day
Just like my favorite old board game (well action board game. I loved Monopoly and other board games based on the games Theme.) Risk, which was my favorite war themed board game. This one has things risk could never have since it was board game & this is digital, like playing on custom maps, etc. Highly recommended!!
I love this game, but when playing online sometimes I have problems and suddenly all I had done is erased, making me loose one turn. Moreover, I think the game would be very improved if you could see what the other players are doing while you are waiting. It would make the online game so perfect.
I really enjoy this game but you guys really need to fix the timeout time. I am tired of people not doing anything for 10-30 minutes straight expecting a win or whatever there doing. Can you guys add a 1 minute time out. I am only gonna give 3 stars until this is fixed. Thank you for the epic game.
I love the board game and this is it at its best. It seems the reviews about the game being unfair are made by the type that would flip the board over in real life. If you can enjoy a game that is not just handed to you switch to normal quality and have fun.
Good game but honestly if you're going to do something as annoying as put 3 ads in between turns including a timed video before you can return to playing, I'm going to give it a crappy rating. Because that's a crappy thing to do. Seriously who does that? I've never had an app with that many ads.
AI isn't the greatest, but not bad at all. The online makes this game, it's awesome not having to mess with the pieces and dice. My only complaint is you are allowed to retreat all your troops from a taken territory, you aren't forced to leave the attacking troops behind. Minor thing though, this is an awesome game!!
It's occasionally a little laggy on the home page, but turning the app all the way off fixes it every time.
This is a great way to introduce Risk to the modern generation. It is fast-paced and fun. I could get three games completed in one hour. It's sad that no one plays online anymore. A great game.
It was clunky. Biggest issue is the randomization of the dice. I have never seen so many sixes rolled, especially by enemies. Another big issue was the ads in between every turn. I understand having ti have ads for a free game, but only have an ad before and after the match. It does push you to want the ad free version of the game, but it was not good enough to spend the money. Would rather spend the $6 for premium unlimited play in the official risk game.
My favorite board game is Risk and this is like a mobile version of that, so for that reason I want to love it, but unlike Risk this game is so skewed its highly unfair. I love a challenge, but only when executed in equality. The die rolls, while skewed, don't bother me too much. But the CPU getting 15 reinforcements every roll when they own one property while I own a couple continents and only get 8 makes it impossible to strategize and takes away the fun. Level the playing field and I will up the rating.
Game will work fine for a few games, then the computer seems to get mad and starts to cheat. If the computer doesn't control any continents, and gets 25 men per round, for 3 straight rounds (without killing off an opponent), there is something wrong. Also the computer can move as many guys from as many countries to one country that it wants. It will only let move from one country to another, then ends my turn.
The developers did a great job of this game. Don't skimp on stars for this app because you lose 24 units to a 1. Dice are used in games of chance all the time and have been used for millenia, because of their inability to care about the outcome. It is random. That is what "chance" is all about. Improbable things are bound to happen.
It's free that's a plus.. the controls are clear and simple so that is too.. however, combat feels unbalanced the cpu is always much stronger and seemingly gets more troops. There's is no way to adjust the difficulty of the game so that leaves a lot to be desired, as a whole the layout is nice but the color choices and sheer confusion of which states can attack where gets old quick. It's lacking an incentive for replay or a feeling of achievement oh and the music stinks...
The game is nice and works well but loosing an entire army to bad dice rolls one after another after another. I have never seen consecutive rolls like that, certainly not in real life with actual dice.

Instaled for 2nd time because i love this game. But it takes a lifetime to conect and even when you do,other player moves takes too long.
So we all know what this is xD It's -basically- Risk, the classic board game adapted to the mobile format. If you're planning to download this game, you should consider the following: Unless you just like blowing your money, opt for the free version. The ads, while annoying, aren't really all that bothersome. Secondly, like many of the more dissatisfied customers said, there's no shortage of bull**** when it comes to die rolls. But it's not as one-sided as they implied. Overall, it's still a good game.
Great app! I loved it Thanks. Feedback: 1st-missing Resistance. In Classic RISK cards have a territory on them (apart from wild-cards). When you cash in you get 2 Armies deployed on those territories if you occupy them. Most strategic when playing an adjunct-move game (instead of a chain-move)2nd-when attacking you have to at least move in 'The Amount Of Dice' rolled. So a game-development error here. Otherwise it continues to defeat the purpose of moving-strategy. Cheers. My favourite game
Needs work on the multiplayer selection. Almost no synchronous gameplay like in the local selection. Also the awards thing is jank. It's too good of game to stay at such a low level of gameplay.
Good maps (but very imbalanced) AI suicides into you AI is plain retard (even on hard) and is really easy to beat. Game difficulty is based arround making you always roll low. Has glitchs (territory with 0 unit on) Achievements are too easy Apparently playing 3 local game counts as 50 online game. And much much more issues. I recommend downloading RiskII instead
I was playing this and loving it but there has now been a connection error for 2 days I've missed my turn in in 2 24 hour games. All other apps on my phone connect fine
Game would be a lot better if it did not use such badly skewed dice rolls and it would be nice to have a review option so that you can see what the CPU has done...Also the numerous ads keeps making it crash.
There are so many games with only one person in it waiting for other players. And also a 1m timeout. And pls improve the notification when its your turn. AND FOR THOSE WHO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE DICE ROLLS, ITS JUST YOU. I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THE DICE AT ALL.
At first..... I hate this terrible instrouctions. Now I realize how to play I found out I suck at risk and am still addicted to the app!!!!! But I am confuse on the multiplayer setting.
I enjoy it, but the dice rolls are rigged. Having 14 vs 4 and then loose. I just might think to pay for the game if this problem is fixed.
This is basically Risk, the board game and plays like the PS3 version but with added features of choosing what maps you want. Some people I don't think understand the rules. If a player rules a continent(not just a state) then they get extra reinforcements. Also is a board game and goes by the roll of a dice. Doesn't matter if there's 8 v 4, if you don't win the dice you'll lose a battle, simples. For free it's well worth having and it takes up hardly any memory so it's a no brainer if your a fan of the game or board games in general.
This app is junk right now. First and foremost, when playing online completed turns are somehow lost and reset. This means you end up missing your turn even if you played it. In a game where one turn can make the difference in winning or losing, this is unacceptable. Perhaps they have just gotten too big too fast and the server capacity isn't there. Whatever the reason, it is very frustrating to put another player out of the game, only to have your turn not count and that player then is able to eventually get the upper hand. I have emailed about this problem many times now, and received no response at all. I am about to lose a game right now where I had the only other player who is actually playing dead. Secondly, I have been without notifications for this game for two weeks now. When you play online, even the 10 minute time-out games can be 55 minutes between your turns if no one else plays. Without notifications, the only way to know when it is your turn is to constantly check the game. This is terribly inconvenient to say the least, and again can cause you to miss turns and therefore games. Also, there are cheaters that ruin your game. I am out of space, APP SUCKS NOW.
