Landrule: Risk board game on your mobile

Landrule is an android adaption of the popular Risk board game, and more, it support multiplayer, also you can play against computer, or just you can put some computer player if not enough human player have the multiplayer game. If you like Risk, you will love this game, it is easy to use, the map is simple but nice. I got some problem with the ai, they mostly give points to one unit, and they attack circually each other in a place which have four territory, like in South America, Australia, and if nobody attack from outer territory, they will fight with each other forever.
Market description:

New features on the way, making the classic Risk game more fun.
