Risk or Risiko in german, is a deceptively simple game that utilizes quite a bit of randomness in its mechanics. The goal of the game is to win by reaching ones individual objective. While the stage is set, –again at random–, each player gets a certain amount of units, which will be place on the map by randomly drawing cards for each country, strategies start to form. These will come under fire during the course of the game, making it necessary to be a good tactician as well. Over to course of the game it will become clearer what the others are striving towards, sometimes resulting in short- and even longterm relationships with others. It can get heated, it might be political, humanitarian, selfish, bold, stealthy, just fun, chaos and so much more. In the end it is a game that reveals a lot more, than what its rather simple nature might suggest.
