Was blown away by this game. Planned on giving 5/5 until I figured out how to use the History option; Now I photoshopped a 6th star in!

To win Crazy (level 5) is probably 30% luck, but the rest is proper strategy.
1) if you don't capture a bonus by turn 4, restart.
2) if you meet an AI within a 5 turns, restart.
3) Try to balance not killing a specific team, and capturing another bonus; if you can capture and hold a bonus, do it, but don't focus on killing one team (unless they're clearly winning, in which case you've probably lost)
4)If you can't win within 40 turns, you've probably lost.
-- there are other small strategies, but they're quite situational dependent. The main rule is to advance where you can, and do your best not to lose your bonuses.

stop complaining about the crazy one yes it is very hard but after a while i got it the best way to do it is to get Africa and move into Europe lets what i did but if you do really good save and if you lose try to capture more next time. :)

dude its impossible to get the crazy level
i was playing this one now for 3 hours but it ends always on the same way: im unable to hold the lines against the enemys. somehow they are always able to break through. i have to kill 50 armys on EVERY (f)uckin turn. seriously did you ever played it?

the crazy level is a little too hard. i have all africa but then suddenly i have three countries on my border each with rediculously large armies. like 120, 96 and so on. This was my best attempt... so how is it possible?

this game has a bug! on 14 turn PC get +39 on one field and on turn 15 another +36. So 15/3 = 5 so it can have max 30 (5*6) additional units using cards. I have equipped field on every continent except one. So another +9 units PC can have on every turn (max because another player was on field and maybe this player does not have any full continent). So PC use on two turns 75 units (39 + 36) and max units they can produce is 30+(2*9) =48. ???? On turn 39 units is ok (30 = 5*6 using cards + 9 units get per turn) but next turn they must not have any other card and only 9 units can be created. On turn 16 I have still equipped field on every continent except one.
Please can anyone told me what is wrong?

Could the programmer not have the proper turn number in the info bar? Europe Challenge (turn 23) is your last attack for a gold medal.

@pepperpunk If the mute button gets in the way, you can click "more info" on the side with Alaska or Anadyr selected and click on the territory you want to attack.

It kinda reminds me of axis and allies, which is a good thing because they don't make good versions of it for pc anymore. The game itself is simple and bug free which is rare for flash games of this magnitude. Also, the difficulty level is perfect (difficult enough to challenge me, but not so difficult that it makes me freak out and quit in an angry-german-kid-tantrum). I give it 5/5 ;D

When I saw the crazy challenge I said, "Ok, this will be hard but it is doable." But insane? Wow, just wow. Great game overall 5/5. I really like all the different ways to customize with maps and cards.

just a little typo: in "europe chalenge", in the middle of Czech republic, you have location called "Olomuoc" ... It´s supposed to be "Olomouc"... great game anyways...

good game although the last levels are cheated... on turn 2 in "crazy" level a near ennemy gets 12 reinforcements so you don't stand a chance...

There seems to be a small bug in the Africa map : Huila territory is not linked to Bie. Apparently it should be. Great game anyway ;)

Hey Fizzer, this hit the spot for my Risk hunger :) as others have said. Congrats on your work coming together into this addictive game!

superb game, it lacks only one feature - FULLSCREEN! :) also, there might be more normal difficulty scenarios, i'd appreciate it

Just finished the European challenge on 1st try and Risky Business is mine. I actually started to panic when my ally suddenly started to attack me near the end because I thought I was going to have to defeat him too in order to finish the game and get the badge. Just had to finish off our common enemy to complete the game, whew.

@ okmansasz - Africa custom map is my favourite :) interesting trade offs on bonuses (super large down to just 1 cell) and full of complexity. :)

@neonights:The best way to win in 6 is to attack Ukraine & Middle East on your 1st turn...and start over if you don't win them both....might take a few tries.

pdu81 not at all. Ive beaten it 3 times. 2 times in 30 turns (I startet in USA) and one in 19 turns (I startet in Africa). Its not 3-4 enemies btw. Its 6. These 6 are in two allied groups with 3 on each side. They fight each other while you stand alone. Its a challenge to win the map but thats what makes it fun.

pdu81, its not you vs 3-4 its you vs 3 vs other 3. So they are balanced out with a little luck. Some of them are allies, so one of the 3 team don't attack each other. The art is to know which one of the teams is winning and weaken that, since when one of them is winning over the other, they'll then roll over you.

Overall, this has got to be in the top 3 games on Kong. I don't understand why my saves have just deleted, but oh well, I guess I'll just have to kick AI ass all over again ;D

Crazy is pointless to play. Why the heck to they all attack you and not each other? How are you supposed to beat 3-4 enemies?

You should make it so that your turn happens then everyones turn, so that after you click commit your troops will be moving against what is already shown on the map. Ive lost far too many games because all the turns happen at once, not necessarily you click commit then your turn happens, it feels like you click commit, then one persons turn, then another persons turn, then your turn, then you get to decide what to do next.

Too bored to continue after the first level. The first time I saw a computer implementation of RISK was sometime in the mid-80s. And there have been many since. This didn't add anything new, beyond nice background music and a sometimes-frustrating control scheme.
And the original RISK wasn't even much fun, to begin with.

Europe is a breezze, be agressive in taking Western Europe and fortify the rear, then move through Itly and take the southern map for bonuses, certer is last.. Use all reinforcements for your allies easternmost territories and you'll get the enemy in a pincer.

So I click on custom games and I preview some maps. When I look at Africa I was like HOLY S#%@!!!!! I look at the number of territories which is 330 and I was like DAMN!!!! That's larger than the Double Earth map. Jeez, gonna take about a day or two to complete that map.
