'''World War 5''' is an Icehouse game for 2 to 4 players designed by [[Andy Looney]]. It is designed to be a game similar to the classic game RISK, but with much simpler rules, evenly distributed resources, and a shorter play time. Each player seeks to conquer an entire opposing continent without losing all their home territories. |
