Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The Risk and Risk II games encourage real hands-on military deployment, precise decision-making and careful strategies. Civilization II invites you to build an entire civilization from the ground up, conquer opposing armies and defend your world. It's the ultimate collection for the world leader in all of us.

Risk

Seize territories, reinforce your battalions, create alliances, and crush your enemies. It's every empire for itself in a ruthless grab for global domination. The tide of history is turning...and only one empire will survive to tell the tale.

Risk II

It is the time of empires and armies, of countries and conquests. The world is at war and you are in command of an army fighting for global domination. Organize your forces in a ruthless campaign to crush your enemies and take their territories in this fast-paced game of strategy, negotiation and luck. See the classic game come to life with more ways to play, advanced map options, superior graphics and animated battles. As "Supreme Commander" it's up to you to deploy your troops, attack your enemies--even betray your allies in an all-out effort to take over the world.

Civilization II

Make every critical social, economic and political decision as you build an empire to span history. Compete against some of the greatest leaders of all time. It's discovery. It's diplomacy. It's your destiny. So plan your every move carefully. Because in this game, you either stand the test of time or you're history.

5.0 out of 5 stars Looking for Risk, then buy this!, May 12, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Risk, Gold Edition (CD-ROM)

After spending many weeks trying to find an "old" copy of Risk II to buy, I found this. It has Risk I, Risk II, and Civilization II all in one box. This whole package was cheaper than buying one of the old copies of Risk II alone!

You get the best of all worlds...Risk one includes a great classic version of the game, plus the added games of Castle Risk (I think thats what they call it) where you can play with states in Europe and have attacking strategies. Risk two has great graphics, and the addition of simultaneous risk is a GREAT addition...really gives the game new life that isn't possible off the computer. I haven't ever played Civ II, but I am sure it is in there for a reason...

BUY THIS if you like Risk...you get them all for next to NOTHING!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great game, but no Internet option, January 1, 2003

Great game if you love Risk. However, I was very dissapointed to find out that there is no real Internet ability. They used to have the ability to play on zone.com, but that support is no longer provided. Unless you are on a LAN, or are adept at setting up a VPN, there is no way to play with a friend over the Internet. VERY DISSAPOINTING!!!

However, for the game itself, it works fine on my Win 2000 machine. No bugs that I have found which is pretty good for an older game title.
