## Maracaibo Digital Reviews in United States

### ***** "Best Game On the High Seas"
Never any issues with my iPad. This game is deep and brilliantly brought to life. Misses out on the multiplayer front.
-- srkdavid, 2024-10-18

### *---- "Horrible implementation and horrible dev support"
I gave the developers a chance to respond to this before writing this review. 

If I could give 0 stars, then I would. The app doesn’t even work on the iPad.  It is stuck in a portrait orientation but landscape layout, so the game only takes up half of the screen and the other half is the buttons to start the game, etc.  Unplayable.  I wrote to the devs twice trying to get support, but was ignored.  After a six week wait, I’ve decided to write this review to warn others away.
-- The Diplomatic, 2024-06-24

### *---- "No AI in 2024"
You play solitaire version, there are no computer opponents, which makes it BORING
-- Stmzfs, 2024-02-20

### **--- "Glitchy"
I’ve played the game a few times and have not yet been able to get through one game without it locking up and not being able to move past the 3rd round.
-- Buddy J Pike, 2024-01-18

### *---- "Never even got to play"
App is buggy right off the bat. It opens in landscape mode but half the picture is off the screen and you can’t see the content. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling, restarting iPad,etc…nothing works. Requested refund.
-- frankie3788, 2023-08-16

### ****- "A ton of potential that needs more development investment"
This feels like a very solid implementation of the Maracaibo board game. It has a ton of potential, but it is also hurt from various things that simply need polishing.

* All actions should be undoable within a single turn. In essence you should be able to restart your turn if desired (or at least make this an option in settings). At the moment the undo seems limited, even within a single turn.
* The tutorial would greatly benefit from a back button, so that you can easily step back a screen or two and re-read something.
* The game doesn&#039;t handle mobile devices properly that have the default system font set to a larger size.
* On Apple silicon devices (macOS versus iOS) the game starts is the wrong orientation and can not be rotated, so it is basically unplayable, even though it appears to be running fine.

On the featureside, it would be great if there was support for multiple online players, both realtime via local bluetooth or internet, and a delayed email-style turn taking feature, where oneplayer takes their turn the other player recives a notifcation that it is their turn and then whever they start the app and take their turn, the next player is notified, etc, so that a game can be played as time allows over a few days, or whatever.

It would also be great to see content from the new expansion and any additional promos, etc.
-- spkane, 2023-07-24

### ***** "Update fixed issues"
Issues have been fixed with recent update. One of my favorites to play on my phone.
-- ldyer14, 2023-06-21

### *---- "Locked screen iPad"
Just bought the game and the screen is locked into a position making the game unplayable. Looking at the recent patch notes as of 2days ago this is supposedly fixed. Guess not, waste of money.
-- thisvaccuumsucs, 2023-06-19

### *---- "Game doesn’t work"
The game hangs after the first automatic player move, with no input possible.
-- rolandr, 2023-06-01

### ****- "Great with a big bug"
Another person mentioned the board being stuck to where you cannot view the bottom section. this happens to me about 50 percent of the time if I have an unfinished game- if I exit out and log back in , it fixes it SOMETIMES. The way you can tell is if there is a small snippet of the scroll that appears saying to move your ship 1 to 7 spaces. If I log in and see that little Snippet at the top, I immediately shut out of the game and restart it until it goes away - pretty frustrating  but it is not game breaking like another mentioned _. Hopefully this gives insight to fix it- also , if they added multiplayer this would be one of the best board game apps on iOS. Thanks!
-- Cheery Littlebottom, 2023-05-15

### *---- "Too Buggy"
I have this on an iPhone 12 Pro and it will not scale to the screen consistently.  I had to abandon the tutorial but was hoping I could just play a game ( I know how to play the board game ) but it immediately got stuck on the opponent’s first turn by having no way of advancing the text to move the game forward.

The way you scroll and scale the screen is terrible, and often leaves icons you need to click in a spot that makes it next to impossible to do so without activating something else.

This game needs serious work and thus far was a waste of money.
-- SomaAndFeelies, 2023-04-08

### **--- "Buggy"
Playing on iPhone 13 Pro. I’m trying to learn via tutorial but the camera is at the top of the screen. I can’t see the board at all and have absolutely no idea what’s going on. Prompts come up but I can’t see what’s happening. If I can’t learn the game I can’t play it.

I basically threw away $8
-- TittleSkittle, 2022-12-22

### **--- "Decent adaptation but missing AI opponents"
So the digital implementation of the game is pretty good, however, like many others have noted this game lacks AI opponents. I think many would agree this is a major faux pas in 2022 and the dev response of “ a ton of people want it but it’s unlikely at this moment” is also not great. Many would also agree this is an essential feature and the game is incomplete without it.

Having a good pass and play set up is essential, especially for those who want to experience the game at many different player counts (which can be impossible IRL). A solid 2/5 until the game is completed with AI opponents.
-- Baguafox, 2022-07-08

### **--- "Do not make excuses.  This game needs AI"
Beautiful representation of the game.  HOWEVER, the idea that AI has it been included is inexcusable.  I would have never purchased this if I would have realized it.  Not your fault.  But, if I wanted to play solo, and I absolutely do NOT, I’ll use my physical copy.  Fix this problem immediately. You will sell millions.
-- King Agricola, 2022-05-01

### ***** "Love this game, needs a little more"
Loving this implementation of one of my favorite board games. In this game you are a hired gun on the high seas hire your crew (card tableau) and specializing in a few actions while racing your opponents to the end of the round. Thinky fun! I’m currently just playing the solo mode within the campaign so I can’t comment on multiplayer. 

With a few tweaks the game will be perfect but even as is it’s great to pick up my phone/iPad wherever I am and play a game of Maracaibo. If you have a smaller phone I wouldn’t recommend it but it works fine on my old 8 plus.
-- icelusx, 2022-04-13

### **--- "Missing everything that makes a good board game App."
So while the gameplay and presentation is passable the screen real estate is poorly managed and the fact that it is pass and play only makes this a colossal waste of money. I would recommend if there was network play but having the option of pass and play or a single automa opponent makes this a failure. 

Skip this and buy one of the hundreds of other games that have true multiplayer. Wish I could get a refund.
-- Lordunborn, 2022-03-03

### *---- "Hard to use"
This review is based on experience with this App on iPhone 8 Plus (large screen). 

I can’t use this app at all. I’ve never played the board game, so the digital versions use of iconography exclusively made the game very confusing, and the content is so tiny on the phone I honestly don’t even know what I’m clicking. I went through a lot of the (lengthy) tutorial and it didn’t help much. 

I don’t recommend unless you’ve played the game, can squint real good or are using iPad version
-- S1W-qwerty, 2022-02-05

### ****- "Good game, no bugs yet.  Needs AI though"
Enjoying the game and have no problem yet. Looking for AI play though. Hope that will be implemented.
-- Thyme71, 2022-01-30

### ****- "Good adaptation, multiplayer issues IMO"
I like this digital edition of Maracaibo. The imagery and icons are the same as the physical board game. It feels the same as physical. They also simplified combat so that it’s clear what options you have and the penalties you might pay or benefits gained, etc. 

I play board game apps so that I can play solo against AI. Unfortunately, the only AI in this game is Jean the Solo Mode opponent. Instead of playing against an AI player you’re playing a solo mode against Jean who plays by different rules. I find Jean to be pretty difficult to beat. It might just be me but it seems like if you play against Jean the best way to beat them is to quickly navigate to the last space while making some good plays along the way. Each turn Jean gets heaps of rewards usually. 

I would much rather play against AI that is following the same rules as me to feel more like a normal multiplayer match. 

Otherwise the app is good and is fun to play? It’s also a great way to learn the game through the tutorial.
-- Quidopher, 2022-01-23

### ***** "Perfect Digital Adaptation"
Developers take notice. This is the cleanest port to digital I’ve ever tried for a board game. It strives to be as close to the physical board game experience as possible. It’s the boards, the cards and simple menus.  AI is the actual solo mode from the physical game.  Again, I really feel like they wanted to keep this as close to the physical board game experience as possible and they succeeded. I’m looking forward to any future projects this developer announces.
