Looks good. Wait, is that a hint of 〰️ under Chris' nose? Are we about to see the introduction of a Dice Tower villain?!

Pirates of Maracaibo is a great game which me and my group appreciated quite fast and were sure it stays in the collection. Turns go quickly without much downtime, map layout will be different each game helping with the replayability which overall is quite high, you have a lot of options on your turn and they are all interesting, overall an awesome game that I could definitely recommend and I think it deserves recognition, good to hear you like it guys :)

Being born and raised in real life Maracaibo, I can not stop myself from pointing out that Maracaibo's map has been rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise (North is to the left). It is silly and it doesn't affect game play but still looks wrong to my eyes. I guess I would play with rotated cards instead of a rotated map.

@thedicetower 4 месяца назад

Thanks for sharing that, I ha never heard before. And yeah, i think you could arrange it that way and it would work still.

We played the fool out of Maracaibo when it first came out and it has sat on the shelf for a while. We tried to play it recently on BoardGameArena and both scratched our heads trying to remember how it played. Between remembering that you might get extra actions if you moved further, having to burn cards as resources to do upgrades, and having to make sure you have crew available to to accomplish some things, it is a lot. This one looks more open and intuitive. I'm hoping it is one we can take down from the shelf after a year and just put it out on the table and play. That is a big selling point for us now-a-days especially with the size of our current collection. My guess is that this will replace Maracaibo for us, but we'll see.

@stephaniebollmann2793 4 месяца назад

We love Maracaibo and were super excited to try this on the cruise. While it was fun, we came away feeling like we would rather play Maracaibo despite the longer play time.

@sergioperez2771 4 месяца назад

I concur. The extra 30 minutes is worth it for a more fulfilling experience, although as a stand-alone without taking the original into consideration, Pirates is worthwhile. It’s just hard to not compare the two.

Great review! How the setup time? I liked the original a lot, but setup took forever and final scoring was a bit weird 😅

@thedicetower 4 месяца назад

Set-up isn't too bad. Biggest thing is setting up the starting cards and arranging them out. Beyond that, it's pretty easy. A major improvement over the original.

@Kostamou 4 месяца назад

An excellent game...easy to learn,very deep strategy and huge replayability due to the fact that the "sea" always is a new outcome...and during the game new cards come out... Brilliant...never two games will be the same!!!! I believe that this is a must have if you like the theme Thumbs up for that game

@rioterism 4 месяца назад

Totally agree with you, a great game!!!

@Flip5ide 4 месяца назад

We really like this game, i got some custom dice made that look like gold, emerald and pearl, add in the original Maracaibo metal coins and it makes the game awesome.

@thedicetower 4 месяца назад

That sounds awesome! Some pearlescent dice would be a nice touch for them.

@keep_on_harpin8267 4 месяца назад

Have never played Maracaibo but it popped up in a top ten pirate games and was on my radar along with sea of legends to grab but this looks like it focuses on the pirate theme more and might be what i get instead of Maracaibo

Did Chris use the word "minute" (meaning "very small") at 13:20? That is the word the crew said no one used in the "Top 10 Terrible Game Names" video :)

@konikniov7069 4 месяца назад

I think, it’s a better game than Maracaibo but I do see that you can own both. I have only played it solo.

@Frostation 4 месяца назад

You mentioned around the 18 minute mark that you can get any card in your column. Not sure that is accurate because there's a rule that says you must be closer to Maracaibo at the end of your movement, i.e. you must move one column forward and not stay in the same column.

@thedicetower 4 месяца назад

You are correct. Just a slip of the tongue where we meant you can almost always reach any card in the next row over.

@sonofsol2869 4 месяца назад

They also said you have to always move at least 1 closer to Maracaibo

@Kostamou 4 месяца назад

You can spent one of your moves one step closer to Maracaibo and the other two ( or one) in the same column...

@Flip5ide 4 месяца назад

@@sonofsol2869 you must end one column closer to Maracaibo.
