RisiKo! Challenge is a board game released in 2010 for 3–5 players, 90 minutes per game, and ages 14 and up. It was designed by Spartaco Albertarelli and its main mechanics are Set Collection, Player Elimination, and Area Movement.
The Official Italian National Championship deluxe edition of Risiko, the Italian edition of Risk. During the years, Risiko has radically changed with the development of new rules specifically designed for the tournaments. A special set of secret objects, the time limit and the original scoring system (not to mention the popular "tanks" a sort of Risiko's icon in Italy) are peculiar features of the Italian way of playing this game. This brand new box is the final result of a development that started in the first half of the '90s and ended with Risiko Digital, the online version of the game. "Chellenge" is the title of the most important online tournament that is part of the selections for the annual Italian National Risiko Championship. This new box is specifically dedicated to all the "Challenge players". The box incldues the official tournament rules, top level components and a new game variant called "Kingmaker".
RisiKo! Challenge supports 3–5 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for RisiKo! Challenge is 90 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists RisiKo! Challenge for ages 14 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
RisiKo! Challenge has a complexity rating of 1.8 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
