Reviews
Ok, make sure you have Win7 compatibility mode turned on and allow the game to run as administrator, but aside from those small annoyances, the game is VERY fun, and I love the tongue-in-cheek humor! This is a city builder with a political twist in that you're the dictator of an island nation. You need to keep everyone in your city happy (So they don't vote you out of office, revolt, or stage a military coup d'etat), but you also need to keep the superpowers happy. Keeping everyone happy is ideal, but if you can only choose two, be on at least [i]good[/i] terms with the US and USSR. They may be opposed to each other, but making sure they aren't opposed to YOU is how you make sure your little island isn't turned into a battlefield. The game is pretty in-depth with it's economy mechanics and the needs and wants of each and every person, and the game does a very good job teaching you how these systems work, too, which is something I struggled with coming from the original Tropico (2001). Highly recommend for any city-builder fans!

This and every other Pro feature is free until October 20, 2026. A free account is all it takes.
Every market we collect.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Poland over the last 30 days: the 21 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 12 places towards #1, and the 2,501 moves with no price cut behind them went 1 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Klassiker im Aufbaugenre STORY -/- Eine Story an sich gibt es nicht, die Kampagne besteht aus 20 einzelnen Missionen. Zusätzlich gibt es noch einen Endlosmodus. MISSIONSDESIGN 8/10 Die einzelnen Missionen erzählen den Aufstieg, Fall und schließlich wieder den Aufstieg des Presidente. Während der Missionen lernt man die ganzen Spielmechaniken und Bedeutungen der Objekte, Erlässe etc. kennen. Einige Missionen spielen sich etwas langatmig und man sollte daran denken, zwischendurch manuell zu speichern, sonst ist es ganz schön ärgerlich wenn man die Mission nach Stunden plötzlich verliert und wieder ganz von vorn anfangen muss. KI -/- GRAFIK 7/10 Das Spiel ist schon etwas älter, trotzdem ist die Grafik noch ganz in Ordnung. SOUND 8/10 Die Soundkulisse ist super, die Musik und die Sprecher lassen einen sehr gut in die Thematik eintauchen. Fazit: Alles in allem ein nach wie vor gutes Spiel, welches man auch empfehlen kann. Ich würde jedoch dann eher zu den neueren Teilen raten, da sich die preislich nicht viel nehmen, dort dann aber die Grafik besser ist und die neueren Spiele vom handling besser zu spielen sind. GESAMT 23/30
a City builder with a twist of politics and economy management. Quite addicting to be honest.
Tropico has been a big part of my life for a long time and it all started here. This game is 14 years old now and sure the newer games have better mechanics and graphics but ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ are the vibes in this one perfect. The music, the building models, the voice acting, humour and the best sunsets in gaming history (orange glow goes so damn hard). Would be a perfect video game if it didn't alt tab crash which wipes your saves every time (seriously, don't ever alt tab).
Best TROPICO!
Respeite El Presidente, meu amigo!
Never liked it, can't recommend. The collector's bundle was 99% off for 5 minutes one night in 2014 and a random guy who bought a ton of them sent me a copy for free. Thanks stranger, couple of cents well spent.
GODDDDD
Can play as any old dictator. Only downside: Pinochet has no helicopter
Balanced economy? Check. Oppression? Double check. Statue of myself? Obviously. Just another day in paradise.
