Watch “The Best MOBA Board Game | Trials of Maya Review,” a board game review for Trials of Maya from Gaming Caravan on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by Gaming Caravan on YouTube:
Trials of Maya may be the best MOBA board game I’ve ever played—and it just became my #4 game out of nearly 500 board games.
In this review, I explain how Trials of Maya combines the leveling and skill-based strategy of Guards of Atlantis II, the objective-driven battles of Godtear, and the lane-pushing and minion control of Skytear into one deep tabletop MOBA.
We’ll cover its programmed card system, customizable heroes, neutral minions, Nexus battles, progression, playtime, complexity, 1v1 gameplay, and the types of players who should—or shouldn’t—back it.
