Our Review
Libertad o Muerte is as easy to describe as it is a board game transferred to the computer. Its main incentive is to offer us military strategy set in a historical period as little treated as the wars of colonial independence. Its gameplay goes far beyond than rolling dice and getting a higher number than the enemy; the health and morale of our soldiers, the presence of leaders and letters with historical information that can alter our games must be taken into account. The downside is found in the confusion of learning and some mechanics that never seem to be entirely clear, such as the distribution of resources, victory points or the use of ships. All in all, an entertaining and fun game designed for lovers of board games and strategy.
