—description from the publisher

In essence a Risk clone, the game introduced several modifications such as, among others, players getting a card at the beginning of their turn and a border between Middle East and China, non of these present in Risk. Moreover with the release of FutuRisiKo by Spartaco Albertarelli in 1992 (and several additional releases to this date), this game started a family in its own right.
