About:

Standard Risk game, looks like the board games plastic pieces, board itself is nice (and 3D, can zoom in and pan around), all mouse (not keyboard) controlled as far as i can tell?

It's fairly nice to play, the different ai choices do seem to actually have different stratgems/personalities as far as I can tell, setting one to chaotic does actually seem to have them make some odd choices.

Will update review once I've tried multiplayer (review so far is based on 2 matches against the ai)
- Although, upon entering the setup for online multiplayer (not local) it appears you have to invite people from your friends list, no matchmaking?
- If someone else could confirm that I haven't simply missed an option for auto invite's I'll update my review to reflect it as a fact?



Critisisms:

NEEDS a way to skip the ai's turns! and could do with some more graphical options?

Would also not be the worst thing if they added the options to adjust all of the different sound volumes individually. (the Din ding! sound upon completing an attack move is much louder than any of the other noises)

Hopefully they'll see our reviews and add this.



Tested on:

(obviously this is overkill for this game)
Windows 8 Pro 64bit
4th gen i7
16gb ddr3
GTX 980ti

Takes a small ammount of time to boot from a black screen but then runs without any problems or glitches (at least thus far).
