This game is great for all the reasons risk is, and many more. Not only does it include prebuilt ai games which already have settings and cards beyond risk, it allows you to create your own games on a huge and eternally growing number of player made maps. The community’s blessed with a host who cares about player feedback, and actively incorporates it, let me speak from experience, he listens, and answers. However, that being said, the perks of the browser edition, while this warzone update is a MASSIVE improvement from the struggles of before, still don’t all hit the app. You can’t vote on a map of the week, work with your clan or use forums, or even mail on mobile, and it can at times be aggravating, even if the browser version on mobile will fill in these gaps in an odd, frankenstein’s monster of full game. However, that being said, I have no doubt these concerns will be remedied once the team gets a little better with app design, and I’m confident it’s just a matter of time.

The only flaws I can think of is that you’re limited to 40 players once you’re at the max and two of the colors have little if any difference 60 might be pushing it but 50 would be a lot better The bright blues are almost identical and it’s confusing when they share bordersI want a feature where only host can boot players because I don’t know if you have heard of the diplomacy games which you more than likely have but somebody just ruined the game by booting Britain and Russia as soon as he was able to and this feature would mostly fix the problem only problem with this fix is if the host is the same way
Ok game, but poorly thought out

When you get to Caesar’s challenge, the developer has made the game so lopsided that although there may be a way to win the game, it’s nearly impossible to accomplish. I’ve tried dozens of times on the IPad, but the boss comes straight for my army. The computer does not play against the other computer armies, but leaves the other “teams” with their boss remaining. So basically, it’s been made to be several against one and they go right for you. A game should be challenging, but also enjoyable. This game becomes no fun. All attributes learned in previous levels (such as delayed attack) and all various types of cards are not available. Online solutions reference using those, so something has changed. There is no pass to experience other levels so it’s time to delete the game unless there is a patch or update that provides a shred of hope. Developer will undoubtedly say something along the lines of “keep trying”. No sir. You beat it and show us. The proof is in the pudding. No one is getting a dime from me if this is the final product.

That is indeed a challenging level! You can search for help on YouTube if you can't get it on your own. The AIs don't target you, although I understand how it may feel that way since you always see when they target you but you can't see when they attack each other. The AI is open source on github so you can prove that they don't target the human player.
Great to see devs still active

The game after not having tons of popularity (im guessing) after 6+ years of being out, its really nice to see the developers still active with their game.Only reason it’s missing a star is because of the micro transactions in their Idle game mode. You don’t have to buy anything to play and the game is still enjoyable without them. The only thing is they bundles are way too expensive! I’d guess they’d make way more money making a small bundle $1 instead of $10. I’d love to buy some of the bundles, but the in-game value is so mismatched to the price. Out of school promo bundle? Great! $10 for some coins and a membership thing I don’t quite understand? Heck no. In my opinion they should take a page out of Supercell’s book with Clash of Clans. If they offered different price points with higher overall value, I’d totally spend money on this game. In the current moment, I haven’t paid a dime. I’ve been playing this game for years and this has been my only complaint. It’s a fantastic game and their baseline game mode is BETTER than Risk in my opinion. I enjoy the fact that there’s no ‘getting lucky’ on dice rolls when attacking territories. Everyone is on even footing, so it just comes down to strategy. Hope this review has been helpful.
