Frisk is software that allows you to play Risk online with other players. In this version, you can include computer players on your team, elevating the level of challenge in the game. The software can be run on a networked X11 environment.
The Frisk project offers a networked X11 version of the popular game Risk, complete with computer players. This software is a detailed and faithful reproduction of the original game with a few added features. One such feature is an API for creating computer players that allows users to customize their gameplay experience. Additionally, the software offers a chat facility for communication with other players.
The design of Frisk is client-server based, communicating through TCP/IP sockets. The source code is mostly well-organized and easy-to-follow, making it easy for those familiar with development to get started. Frisk has been tested on multiple operating systems, including Linux and *BSD, but it should work on most *nixes as long as X is installed.
The latest release includes a number of new updates and fixes. These include improvements to colormapping in truecolor, enhancements to the color dialog, and fixes to dice rolls. The graph now shows more information, the greenland card now displays properly, and users have the option to choose the number of armies to drop when fortifying.
Other improvements include code restructuring and cleaning, updates to documentation using Doxygen, language files reorganized, and the introduction of CVS for version control. Overall, Frisk is a solid software option for those looking to enjoy Risk online with added features and functionalities.
