The board, cards and plastic minis are all of a solid industry standard that is acceptable for a game of this size, length and price. The board is clear to read and it is easy to determine the different zones which is something I find other Risk versions sometimes struggle to achieve. My favourite component is the miniature walkers, complete with missing limbs, that my Mother-in-Law was initially concerned were broken before realising that they had probably been bitten off previously! Final Thoughts on The Walking Dead Risk Most of the components just felt really cheap. The Box is way too big for what it contains. The only reasons its that big is to say “Hey Walking Dead Game Here!”, also for the cover art on it. Have to say its a pretty nice picture. With this being a core set, Mantic has already released numerous game and character expansions to take the experience further if you like this set. Based on the experience I have had with the set, the opportunity to add different characters and scenarios is one that is appealing.

The question that players of this latest incarnation of The Walking Dead are going to ask here is: Does Mantic’s game capture the thrills and feeling of dread in just trying to survive against ruthless survivors and zombie hoards? The answer to that is a resounding YES! Two modes of play allow for beginners and experienced players to tailor the game to their skill level Book One • Book Two • Book Three • Book Four • Book Five • Book Six • Book Seven • Book Eight • Book Nine • Book Ten • Book Eleven • Book Twelve • Book Thirteen • Book Fourteen • Book Fifteen • Book SixteenNew evidence! - This review has been edited to reflect a game score of **6**, but the initial score cannot be altered.

I first played classic Risk as a child and have since played multiple different versions that I have always enjoyed. I am a huge Walking Dead fan, both the Comics and the TV Show, so fully expected to like this game before I had even played it. In my opinion this is not the best version of Risk (Europe, Star Wars, Legacy), however, it works perfectly fine as an area control, dice rolling, Risk game. First Season • First Season (Special Edition) • Second Season • Second Season (Special Edition) • Third Season • Third Season (Special Edition) • The Complete Seasons 1-3 • Fourth Season • Fourth Season (Special Edition) It is widely accepted that it is a good idea for families to do activities together. Robert Kirkman is all about family values, just look at his recently released comic Super Dinosaur. Now Kirkman is doing his part in not only bringing families together, but also preparing them for the inevitable zombie apocalypse. His hit comic book and television series, The Walking Dead, is being made into a board game! "The Walking Dead board game is for players 13 and up, so another mystery is how graphic this game will be. Anybody who has read The Walking Dead comics knows that it is not exactly appropriate for 13 year olds. I would assume that the language would definitely be toned down for the game, as F-Bombs aren't great for family togetherness. Since it is a game about zombies there will most certainly be some violence, but I also expect the level of violence and gore to be toned down from the comic. Otherwise this game is geared toward some hardcore 13 year olds. I also don't expect the zombies to be the only threat in this game, as that is just not Robert Kirkman's style. What other insidious threats await players? One thing I think we all really hope to get from this game is a comprehensive survival plan to survive a zombie invasion. This game could save your life." [3] Pieces [ ] Playable Characters [ ] The game plays as many tower defense games do – you shuffle around the board protecting resources from the invading hordes. In this game, the hordes are zombies thirsting for human flesh.

Walking Dead Risk has two playable versions, Conquest and Survival. The Conquest version is for 2-5 players and is similar to the classic Risk style of total domination. The fifth player assumes the role of the Walkers as each player attempts to control all territories and eliminate all of the other players.
