Product description

Product Information
As the newly installed dictator of an obscure Caribbean island, build a path of progress for a nation mired in poverty, civil unrest and infighting. Oh, and uhh... stash a few million in your Swiss bank account just in case you need to take early retirement.



Tropico takes the addictive building-oriented gameplay of hits such as SimCity 3000 and Railroad Tycoon 2, combined with a healthy dose of Latin American political intrigue, and bundles it up in an easy-to-learn, hard to master, utterly addictive package.

Great Game.

Decided to buy the game when I realized I lost my original one. Found one on here for a great low price and now I play it all the time. Classic simulation came with some Cuban political taste in which you build up your island with such stuff as businesses and houses. Keep it running and keep the people. Fun game if you're into simulation.

basically if your a fan of any simcity game or strategy game then ull like this game based on an island or many different islands depending on the scenario you are the ruler of the island free to do what u want with it you can be a honest hard working ruler for the people or a tyrant all with different outcomes your in control of everything to what your people eat too what there paid and what they pay its a very challenging game with alot of options alot like simcity but on a island if your thinking of getting it then i highly recommend it for hours of fun :)

Tropico (PC) -- A great game!

Tropico is not like any other game I've played. It puts a somewhat different spin on simulation games. You are "El Presidente" and you can rule your island as you please.

I can sit and play this game for hours without realizing how much time has gone by.

You should try this game if you like simulation games with a unique twist.

Its a good simulation game, kinda like sim city but with a dictator. The grafics are very basic, the music can get annoying after a while but just turn it down. There are all sorts of scenarios you can play through or you can make your own random scenario with any options you like. I first bought the game 6 years ago or so and I just bought this new copy of it because I like it so much.

I bought this game because I love simulation games. This game is great if you want to add the threat of being overthrown to a sims like game. I would've given it a 5/5 if they put a little more emphasis on the people. For example when your people are unhappy you have to go through multiple screens to figure out what is wrong with them. I think the game could also be improved by adding more information about the items in the game. If you want the information you have to read the whole guide. I do play this game alot since I have both of the add-on packs.
