    There's something infectious about Tropico 5's breezy attitude to tyranny and dictatorship. [Issue#156, p.118]

    Like sipping a mojito while resting your panda-skin boots on a pauper, there's something nasty yet refreshing here, as it pushes you to maintain control in marvelously illiberal ways. [Feb 2015 (US), p.72]

    This go around, Tropico 5 continues to have some annoying problems that need to be addressed. The controls are disappointing, the story mode is awful, and some other nagging issues persist.

HOW ABOUT FIXING THE PROBLEMS THAT HAVE PLAGUED THIS GAME SINCE THE BEGINNING!!! Citizens still refuse to work no matter the job quality or pay STILL. Stop adding things to the game and fix the problems already. Thanks for wasting my money. And to the rest of the critics, just quit, you have no clue. To give this game such high ratings when they refuse to fix the flaws even after 5 games and countless complaints.… Full Review »

A screen dominated by menus as opposed to seeing what is actually occurring on the ground and music that needs to be switched to mute as an extreme priority being a few. That having been said, the game has plenty of new features and longevity over previous games, if perhaps not offering anything especially new. A welcome change from the console standard FPS.… Full Review »
