If you’re someone who loves strategy games, Rise Wars (strategy & risk) may just be the next mobile game for you.
It’s actually based on the board game Risk, so it’s also something for the board game fans. The game already has over 100k installs on the Google Play store.

Let’s talk about what this game is really about, how you can get better at it, and also if it’s possible to play it on PC.
What is Rise Wars (strategy & risk) Like?
Like any other strategy game, Rise Wars is also all about strategizing to win. Now, the goal of the game is world dominion. It’s based on the military ranking system, so the further you go in the game, the higher you rank.
You can pick maps or submit your own. The developers of the games are open to suggestions. You can even find their email address on the Google Play store page.
If you want to play with friends, you can play with up to six friends.
The maps include Pangea, Classic World, Europe, North America, Azeroth, and Tamriel. With maps like Pangea, there’s something for the history buffs as well. The rest would attract geography enthusiasts.
Everything is happening on the maps. As you expand your territory, you can move troops from one location to another, essentially using them where they are needed the most. The game also gives statistics about troops, so you can analyze the damage and strategize the next move.
In settings, you can customize settings to make the game easy or more challenging. More importantly, the game offers multiple languages, so you can pick the one you’re familiar with.
Achievements in the game are distributed as medals. It doesn’t take much time to earn some medals and get to the Lieutenant rank. You can click on each medal to see what you need to do to achieve the medal (for example, spend 50 hours on the game).
You can check your ranking on Leaderboard, which maintains the ranking of all the players.
For those who have never played this kind of game before, there’s a complete explanation of the rules in the Help section. Read it thoroughly and start playing, and you’ll get everything in no time, as this game isn’t so hard to play.

How to run the game on PC
Rise Wars on PC can be played with the help of an Android emulator. Even though this game is for mobile platforms like Android and iOS, you can play it on a PC.
While it’s not a heavy game in terms of graphics, it can still be a better experience playing on PC because of the large screen. You can see the world map you have chosen better. Plus, it’s easier with keyboard controls.
You’ll obviously need an emulator first. LD Player is a great choice for playing Android games on PC. So first, download and install that on your PC.
Once you’ve installed the emulator, you’ll need to install the game onto the emulator. Here’s how you do that:
- Download the APK file to your Windows desktop.
- Open the emulator Window but keep the window small enough to access the APK file.
- Click on the APK file and drag it to the emulator screen and drop it.
- Double click on the file inside the emulator, and you’re ready to play Rise Wars.
LD Player has both the LD Store and the Google Play Store. You may not be able to find this game on LD Store, so the best solution is to just use the APK file.
Wrap Up
Rise Wars is a decent game that focuses on strategy for world domination. The great thing about this game is that it uses several maps, so you don’t get bored quickly. You can try different maps.
Its graphics can definitely use some improvements, but it’s not one of those story-based games that require HD graphics. That’s also good news for those who don’t have phones with high processing power or memory. Nevertheless, if that’s an issue, you can always play the game on PC with an emulator.
