Fun game. The print is a little small and you have to squint sometimes if you're nearsighted. But the map and the theme do give you a nice Caribbean adventure in a box. A little bit of everything from sea combat to trade and exploration. Edit: Some of the quests fail to activate and remain stuck on the board with nothing you can do to move them along. Really messes up campaign mode. Edited

Decent game, it's not quite the same as Maracaibo because the devs chose to simplify the AI. My biggest issue is that the game is a bit buggy, with the biggest one bug being the nation progress tracker not opening up correctly 60% of the time which also breaks the UX and forces me to reload the app / redo my turn. I've worked around this by learning the stripe placements, but it is quite frustrating. Edit: ez fix for me would be if the devs listed the value of each nation below number of cubes Edited

Doesn't always load properly on my older phone (scaling sometimes gets weird). Not a knock against the game, just something for folks to be aware of. My bigger grope is the lack of a true AI or online multiplayer, which means you need to have someone to pass-and-play with in order to play the game as originally intended. Good adaptation otherwise.

Update 4/27/22: Baffled by the inability of people to read before buying then proceed to give 1 star cause they found out the game is Solo mode atm. For crying out loud learn how to read instead of just mindlessly press buttons. FEATURES • Learn the game's rules with an interactive tutorial >>• Play solo against the Automa at 5 levels of difficulty<< • Pass and play for 2 to 4 players on the same device • Uncover the story of Maracaibo in Campaign Mode, where your decisions permanently change the board Update 01/10/22: Had to lower to 4* cause of noticeable issues with GUI discovered only after a few more games. I just purchased a tablet and was hoping this would have given me a better view of what is displayed on screen but unfortunately the UI seems to be unoptimized also for larger devices. A few panels, text and some clickable elements are too big or cropped or out of boundaries or not properly aligned. To circumvent this situation there's a "Force Mobile Scaling" option which resizes the UI to a smaller scale but while fixing the overlaying/cropping issue, the UI in this mode becomes quite tiny, making it difficult to read. While the game remains strong and it's definitely playable, this UI issue, in my opinion, needs to be put as top priority and fixed asap to fully appreciate Maracaibo. Devs are always proactive and listening to feedback though and they seem to take notes and keep in good consideration all the suggestions that users are sending their way, so I'm confident the upgrade will come. I will update my review as newer builds are released. Original review: Superb adaptation of a very complex and deeply strategic boardgame! Spiralburst Studio did a terrific job with this as they were able to pack a lot of info into a very neat and organized interface. I am playing on an S8 and even though is a bit small, the text on screen is not eye straining. There are a few things I'd like to see added/improved (among which AI and online MP) but devs are active and listening to community feedbacks and hopefully they will add them at some point! Recommended! Edited

Issues below fixed as of February 2024. Great app! --- 100% of the time when I open the Influence menu, it does not open properly and I cannot close it. I'm forced to restart the app. But this also happens if I do so at the beginning when I am trying to decide what cards to discard. Then when I restart the app my game has not been saved. So any time spent thinking about my opening hand is wasted. Also, can't view explanations on career cards at beginning. Edited
