You, as El Presidente, will first take control of the infamous island of Tropico during early colonial times and then guide it through the centuries as the world changes and moves ever forward. You must tackle the changing needs of your people, as well as opposing governments and factions, and thus lay the foundations for your own dynasty. As you move through your years in office you can promote members of your extended family on the island to positions of power: such as ambassador, commanding general or even Supreme Ruler, to ensure your legacy thrives through the eras. As your influence and wealth grows, so do the threats to your burgeoning island superpower. Can you survive both World Wars, prosper through the Great Depression, rule as an iron-fisted dictator through the Cold War and advance your country to modern times and beyond? From the 19th to the 21st century, each era carries its own challenges and opportunities
Buy Tropico 5 on PS4
Brilliant fun, can be challenging but highly addictive!
Not a bad game, worth a punt.
Great strategy game, a little limited in terms of what you can do and build but a solid city builder with a good story mode to it
Good game !!
Takes time to get used to but after a few hours it becomes addictive. Reminds me of sim city but much much better. Great fun game.
Excellent, however you do not get the chance to fully experience the latest tech near the end of the campaign. This is an excellent successor to Tropico 4 and adds plenty of new features to keep it interesting. There is good humour and I would say it requires more meticulous planning than the previous Tropico, but it still remains a very fun game to play. A major gripe I have is that you can build an island perfect for a particular mission. However, when you are given the next mission you still have the same island and it could suddenly become a disaster before you even started e.g. having lots of tourist buildings for a mission only for them to be suddenly defunct in the next.
