I've only played it once so far, but it was fascinating. Truly a unique twist on the classic risk... I'd hesitate to even call it risk really, with the gameplay so different. I'd reccomment it to all who want/are in interested in a bit of a change.
Very well done. The game played quite a bit differently than the basic set up, and the strategy needed changes as well. It'll probably take a couple times to get used to this map.
I like this board quite a bit. It's a neat idea, and cleverly done. The distribution of land and bonuses worked well for me, but much of it is just luck in distribution, just like many of the boards.
My main complaint with this board was just that I didn't understand it. I read the about section, but the rules of the crystal warping and towers weren't entirely clear to me still.
