Pirati di Maracaibo
Salpa per un saccheggio avventuroso... perché forse sarà l'ultimo! Affronta il pericolo e l'avventura ancora una volta mentre cerchi in alto e in basso i tesori più preziosi che i Caraibi hanno da offrire, quindi trova rapidamente un porto sicuro dove nascondere oro inestimabile, smeraldi rari e perle iridescenti. Esplora, accumula merci, assumi membri dell'equipaggio e requisisci navi rivali, ma non dimenticare di seppellire il tuo bottino. Mentre navighi, resta alla ricerca di un posto dove stabilirti dopo che la tua vita in alto mare sarà giunta al termine, ma prima di farlo, devi superare i tuoi avversari poiché un viaggio intorno ai Caraibi non sarà sufficiente. Devi fare tre viaggi per ritirarti come il bucaniere più ricco e più grande di tutti i tempi.
Pirates of Maracaibo è un gioco autonomo dello stesso franchise di Maracaibo del 2019, e i giocatori che hanno familiarità con quel gioco riconosceranno alcuni concetti amati dell'originale. Tuttavia, i nuovi giocatori possono iniziare subito senza conoscere il gioco originale poiché Pirates of Maracaibo è un gioco indipendente con un set di regole più accessibile. Il gioco si svolge in tre round in cui navighi nei Caraibi, assumi l'equipaggio, alleati con altre navi, esplori la costa, accumuli la maggior parte del tesoro e (idealmente) ti ritiri su un'isola appartata come il pirata più venerato della storia. Liberati dei marinai e degli spadaccini, liberati!

Sommario delle regole
Overview
Welcome to Pirates of Maracaibo! You're a pirate in the Caribbean in this tableau-building game, seeking to hire a versatile crew, grow your hoard of treasure, and improve your pirate ship.
Pirates of Maracaibo is played over 3 rounds. Each round, you and your opponents will sail through the Caribbean. You can stop at as many spaces as you want during a round, but watch out! After any player reaches the Maracaibo space, the round will end and all players will move back to the start.
What To Do On Your Turn
On your turn, you must perform these two steps in this order:
Step 1 - Move Your Ship
On your turn, you must move 1 to 3 spaces (each card is a space). You may move to any card that is adjacent to your current card, including vertically. You MUST end in a column that is further to the right than where you started.
If you end your movement on a card (not the Gulf or Maracaibo) with any opponent Ships, you must pay each of those opponents 1 doubloon. If you do not have enough Doubloons, pay as many players as you can (in the order of your choosing), and ignore the rest. There is no penalty for being unable to pay, so if you are broke, you can move onto a space with other Ships with no consequence!
If your ship lands on the Gulf space (to the right of the cards), you must stop there, even if you have extra movement. If you start your turn on the Gulf space, you must move to the Maracaibo space above it.
Step 2 - Perform Actions
Perform an action based on where your ship landed. There are 5 types of spaces that you can land on, detailed below:
Improvement Card
Improvement cards are cards that you can acquire in the Caribbean and add to your tableau.
You must choose one of these options when landing on an Improvement Card:
- A. Ignore the card and gain 5 Doubloons from the supply.
- B. Pay the indicated number of Doubloons in the top left of the card to acquire it. It will move below your ship board, and it will provide either an immediate benefit (beige scroll), a passive benefit or new action (red scroll) that persists for the remainder of the game, or an end-game benefit (black scroll). Any Victory Points shown in the top right are scored at the end of the game.
When you take an Improvement card, a new card from the Tier II deck replaces it.
Residence Card
Residences provide Endgame scoring bonuses.
You must choose one of these options when landing on a Residence:
A. Ignore the card and gain 5 Doubloons from the supply.
B. Pay the cost indicated in the top left and place one of your markers in an available space to indicate that you have purchased the Residence. If you cover the first slot, gain 2 VP. These cards will score VP at the end of the game based on the indicated requirements, up to a maximum of 24 VP or 25 VP. These cards stay in the Caribbean and do not move below your player board.
Location Card
Locations are permanent cards in the Caribbean that provide various effects.
When you land on a Location, you must do all of these steps in order:
1. If a Treasure tile is at this location, a treasure cube is automatically placed from the supply to its corresponding island, increasing its value.
2. If one of YOUR Black Market tiles is at this location, you may activate it.
3. Perform a Ship Upgrade
4. Perform the Location's Action. These are detailed in the section "Various Effects and Action".
The Gulf
The Gulf is the space immediately to the right of the cards in the Caribbean. You MUST end your movement on the Gulf if you land on it.
When on the Gulf, you may first perform a Ship Upgrade and then one of the three following actions:
A. Raiding with an additional 2 raiding power
B. Explore with 4 steps
C. Purchase a Residence anywhere in the Caribbean, paying its cost.
Maracaibo
Maracaibo is the final space in the Caribbean, above the Gulf. If you start your turn on the Gulf, you MUST move to Maracaibo.
When a player reaches Maracaibo, they gain 6 VP and a Ship Upgrade.
- Then, all players collect Doubloon and VP income.
- Finally, ALL players' ships move back to the start of the Caribbean, and it will be the next player's turn in regular turn order.
IMPORTANT: In the third and final round, the last player to act in the game is the player whose token is on Maracaibo. This guarantees equal turns in the game. It is therefore possible that one player may reach Maracaibo in the final round, but other players take one last turn after them.
Various Effects and Actions
Location Actions
These are the main Location actions. They may also appear on other cards, your ship upgrade board, or the exploration track.
Raiding
This is the primary way to acquire Treasure cubes, which score VP at the end and frequently appear on Quests.
- Roll all dice (you may reroll all dice once) and choose one. Add any permanent raiding power and color-dependent raiding power to this die's value.
- This total value is the amount of raiding power you can use to perform Raiding Actions. You start with 3 raiding actions on your ship and can acquire more from Ship Upgrades or Improvement Cards.
- You may perform each Raiding Action AT MOST ONCE each time you perform Raiding.
- You may use the "Acquire Treasure" actions only on the island that matches the die you selected. If no treasure is on an island, you may take it from the supply.
Quest
This action lets you take on quest from the face-up display or from the top of the deck. It refills afterward.
Quests give you an end-game scoring objective. You can score either the easier objective with fewer requirements (and smaller VP reward), or you can score the harder objective with more requirements (and a larger VP reward).
Explore
Exploring is a way to get immediate bonuses and VP on the Exploration Track.
- Add any permanent Explore bonuses to the Exploration effect's value number and move your Explorer up to this total amount on the Exploration Board.
- You may perform the action of the final space you land on or gain the immediate bonus (such as Doubloons).
Buy Good or Crew
This location allows you to do one of the following:
A. Take 5 Doubloons B. Buy a Goods or Crew Improvement card ANYWHERE in the Caribbean, at its cost plus an 3 additional Doubloons.
Bury Treasures 2x
This location lets you bury 2 Treasures.
When burying treasure, you select an unburied treasure cube that is in your hideout and move it below the line, gaining a bonus, if any.
Buried treasure are each worth 2 VP at the end of the game and sometimes are requirements for quests.
Non-Location Actions
These are found outside of Locations.
Raiding Icon without Dice
Immediately perform a Raiding action, where your strength is the printed value plus any permanent strength you have. Color-specific strength DOES NOT count for these actions.
Raiding Icon with a single Die
Immediately perform a Raiding action, where your strength is the printed value plus any permanent strength you have. Color-specific strength for the matching color DOES count for these actions.
Re-Explore (Exploration with a Lightning Bolt)
This icon lets you regain the bonus of where your explorer is currently standing.
Additional raiding actions from Improvements
These are additional Raiding effects you can use (once per Raiding action). The island that you add treasure to DOES NOT need to match the island of the die you choose.
Discounts
Reduce the cost of all Improvements and Residences by the discount shown. These stack.
Final Scoring
