1.0 out of 5 stars This Version by Atari is Terrible, June 19, 2008

By 

Chris L (Orlando, FL United States) - See all my reviews

This version by Atari is pretty bad. The sound cannot be shut off even if you select that option. The game terminates suddenly by itself for no apparent reason and Atari/Hasbro/Microprose does Not have a patch. Every now and again, a computer player is able to move troops across several countries, say from Australia to Europe. Even in fast mode, there is still so much animation in each dice throw that the game is very very slow....figure 10 to 15 secs per dice roll - and there are A LOT of dice rolls. The AI is mediocre and it occasionally does some strange things.

I hope an improved version comes out that allows for short fast games with little or no animations.

The Ultimate Risk made by Hasbro was great. Atari screwed it all up and makes it look like a toy soldier game. If you are into toy soldiers get the atari garbage. If you are into strategy games try to find the hasbro version.

I ordered this game for my son who is from the Atari generation. He enjoys the game without having to set up the old systems.
