Amazing game in every aspect!

User Rating: 9.3 | Tropico PC
By cmiquila | Review Date:
Here is an example of what a bit of imagination can do with a pretty standard genre. Tropico is way too fun, and if you know the Latin American way of doing politics, you will enjoy it much more. And if you are not, well, you will learn about Latin Emperors and the ways they managed to stay in power for so long (some of them are still in power, and others are rising but planning to stay as long as they can). It can be educational, as some of you have said here

Apart of doing the day to day things of a typical tropical island, you will have the chance to manipulate the strings of power to enrich yourself and live a happy retirement. One of funniest parts of the game is when your advisor sucks-up on you some times you accomplish something, even if it something very lame. The ability to chose your personality as a leader is just great (I like the womanizer or the booze king, soooo true!) and the “free elections” are such a joke that you will think you really are somewhere in the tropics

I don’t give it a solid ten because some performance issues, particularly when your island is well advance and you have many structures built in, the gameplay slow downs significantly and I have a powerful PC, more than qualified to play the game.
