Your rule starts now
It is time to move forward for the nation of Tropico and it is up to you as the newly-elected president to lead your people towards the new era. In this world-building and strategy game, it is not just about erecting buildings and landscaping. With a little bit of politics involved and some careful planning, you can shape your country in whatever paradise you want it to become.
Become a true leader
Tropico is not like the other simulation games you have played. As the new ruler, also known as El Presidente, you should have solid plans on how to make your country grow and become successful. Your responsibilities extend far beyond deciding where to build your next commercial establishment or what kind of jobs you feel like handling. In Tropico, you will also be in charge of overseeing elections, making and implementing laws, collecting taxes and tariffs, oversee trades, and engaging in foreign relations. It’s going to be a busy day for you, but no less fun. By being able to juggle all your responsibilities and manage all your tasks as the president, you can turn Tropico into a reputable country. It can be known for its tourism, technology, or even as a food capital of the world!
A beautiful country
It is not that hard to think of how you want Tropico to turn out to be. With the game’s beautiful graphics and realistic sound effects, making your lands flourish is easy and enjoyable no matter how time-consuming it can be. It may be hard to tap in certain spots sometimes, given that the game is to be played on your touchscreen devices. It is not much of a drawback, though, and players can still very much find the game pleasurable to play.
A good past-time
Being able to play as president is a refreshing twist to sandbox games. Even with so many extra tasks on the side, Tropico is still pretty laid back and one of the best games to play if you have nothing better to do. You can customize your character, too, and become the president you want to be.
