У меня в династии уживаются: Коммунист, Либералистка, Авторитарист, Милитарист, Теократ, Консерватор с Реформатором и какой-то дебик-инвалид.
Still great!

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 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.

Worst than Tropico 4!
Скурил кожаную сигару друга за 1 минуту
Игра супер пушка, но в ней как будто есть какие то баги. То челы в здания не заселяются, то в супермаркеты/магазины не ходят ВООБЩЕ, при том что помирают от голода, короче если бы все это поправили, играл бы еще часов 50, а по итогу выбесило и играть перестал. Но на 13 часов супер затянуло, каеф
Tedious, beautiful, the economy doesn't really work, excellent set of items and graphics. Maybe look at Tropico 4 where the economy works.
great game,can get lost in it for hours
Tropico 5 é um ótimo jogo de construção e gestão, com aquele toque de humor político e tropical que a série sempre soube fazer muito bem. Você continua sendo o "El Presidente", ditando leis, construindo infraestrutura, equilibrando o medo do povo e os caprichos das potências estrangeiras — tudo isso enquanto tenta manter seu império de pé. A grande novidade aqui é a introdução das eras históricas: desde o período colonial até os tempos modernos, você vai vendo sua ilha evoluir tecnicamente e politicamente. Isso traz bastante profundidade e obriga a adaptar sua estratégia ao longo do tempo. O visual é muito bonito, a trilha sonora é deliciosa, e o jogo, como sempre, tem aquele charme debochado que te faz rir mesmo enquanto a economia da sua ilha colapsa. Mas nem tudo é mar azul. Comparado ao Tropico 4, o 5 tem uma estrutura mais rígida, menos liberdade criativa, e uma sensação de que tiraram um pouco da “bagunça controlada” que fazia a série tão divertida. Além disso, algumas mecânicas — como dinastias — soam mais cosméticas do que realmente estratégicas. Ainda assim, Tropico 5 é um ótimo city-builder, ideal pra quem curte gerenciamento com personalidade. Talvez não seja o mais “Tropico” da franquia, mas entrega horas de diversão com sotaque caribenho.
Muy buen juego , combina un city builder bastante original con un simulador politico .
Got Achievements for how good I was doing but still random rebels popped up and homeless people literally didn't want to move into free houses, it feels like the game will force bad events even if you're managing everything well Approval seems to artificially go down during elections, even if the average Caribbean satisfaction remains the same your approval will go down for no apparent good reason, same stats, 20% less approval. You can be launching space rockets from your tiny uber wealthy island and still people with AK's will try to kill you even if they're living in mansions.
