Set sail for an adventurous raid…for perhaps it will be your last! Face danger and adventure while you search high and low for the most valuable treasures the Caribbean has to offer, then quickly find a safe harbor to stash priceless gold, rare emeralds, and iridescent pearls. As you sail, be on the lookout for a place to settle after your life on the high seas has come to an end, but you must outpace your opponents as one trip around the Caribbean won’t be enough. You must make three trips in order to retire as the richest and greatest buccaneer of all time!

Pirates of Maracaibo is a standalone game in the same franchise as 2019’s hit Maracaibo with a more accessible rule set. The game plays over three rounds in which you sail the Caribbean, hire crew, ally with other ships, explore the shore, amass the most treasure, and (ideally) retire to a secluded island as the most revered pirate in history.

Emma D. ★★★★★

The pirate theme really pulls you in, and the treasure-hunting mechanics keep every turn tense—you're constantly weighing risk versus reward. I've played three times already and each raid felt completely different.

Victoria I. ★★★★★

The box is hefty and the components feel premium, which immediately set the mood for a nautical adventure. I've played three rounds so far and the dice-rolling for treasure raids keeps every turn tense, even when you're just planning your next move. It's quickly become the game my group argues over

Abigail ★★★★☆

The card-driven sailing and treasure-hunting loop really clicks once you learn the movement rules. Took my group about 20 minutes to get the hang of, but the raid mechanics kept everyone hooked after that. Only gripe is the box insert, it's a bit flimsy for all the bits.
