I chose to do nothing, but I’d like to pretend I brought my mistress onto an episode of The Maury Povich Show in an attempt to be able to do an “i’m not the father” dance. The most amusing thing to happen to me while playing was having an illegitimate child, which created some tough decisions to make: whether to accept the child as my own and be proud, pay the mother to keep quiet, or do absolutely nothing.
Being El Presidente of an island city sounds like it would be exhausting. It’ll make you laugh at how ridiculous the entire thing can be. That’s not to say that it doesn’t look good, but it feels like a slight refinement where it should’ve felt completely fresh and new.īut what Tropico 5does well is make building cities colorful in a world of boring simulation games. Even on max settings, I wasn’t blown away at how the game looked like I expected to be. Also hindering gameplay is the fact that your hand is pretty much held throughout the entire campaign, making you feel more like el vice presidente than the big chief, himself.Īs far as being a supposed graphical upgrade, Tropico 5doesn’t look much better than Tropico 4.But, then again, it’s hard to really show improvement when you’re still looking at similar island environments for the game’s entirety. This new pace slows the campaign down dramatically, making completing the campaign feel more like a chore than anything else. The introduction of eras brings you all the way back to the Victorian era and drags you through World War II, The Cold War, and the Modern era–which would be acceptable if it didn’t do so at such a snail’s pace. And, the new mechanics that are introduced, such as constitutions and eras, ruin all of the progress that its predecessor made for the franchise. The game’s biggest flaw is simply that it doesn’t feel different enough from Tropico 4to really be worth the $39.99 for the new game. While it isn’t as flawed as last year’s miserable release of SimCity, Tropico 5still feels like a small step backwards for the franchise. Thus, the same story goes for the latest iteration in the Tropicofranchise, Tropico 5. Oh, city simulation games, how you tease me so–with your great ideas but somewhat flawed execution.
