Running a neat Java Risk Clone...

[fizgig]

This guy wrote a free java clone: http://jrisk.sourceforge.net/

I downloaded it on my windows machine and I can play it by double-clicking on the Risk.jar file.

On Hoary, however, when I double-click on the file, I see the contents of the file like it's a zip or something.

I did install the Java engine and when I type java -version I get:
java version "1.5.0_02"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_02-b09)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_02-b09, mixed mode, sharing)

I try typing stuff in the Risk directory like java Risk.jar but I get:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Risk/jar

Anybody have any tips?

Run it with
java -jar Risk.jar
