Risk is a game of conquest, politics and war, for 3-5 players. It features 42 territories (36 countries and 6 continents) and a world map in a smaller size than the original board, so it can be played on a table top. Each territory is made up of 3 regions, so there are over 120 territories to capture and defend.

The object of the game is to occupy as many territories as possible. Since the board resembles a globe, Risk is easy to play even on a small table. Your imagination is your only limitation! Pitting the armies of six different, ancient civilizations against each other, Risk becomes an epic conflict where political wiles combine with tactical skill.
