Description

Risk: Balance of Power is a strategic battle game designed for two players, where you'll compete to conquer and dominate a large part of Europe. The game is divided into 6 regions consisting of 30 territories, with some areas featuring rough terrain that makes them harder to attack. With easy-to-learn rules, you can dive right into the action, which typically lasts around 60 minutes. To win, you'll need to keep your capital and achieve three public goals, which vary depending on the starting setup. You can choose from four different basic starting setups, each with a neutral player and a unique combination of goals. The game also features interesting mechanics like area majority, income, and dice rolling, making it a fun and challenging experience for players aged 12 and up.
