    EL PRESEDENTE IS BACK ONCE AGAIN!!! He might be back, but the game took a step back. The visuals were improved, but the gameplay didn't. I dont know why they just didn't keep doing what they were doing with Tropico 4. Tropico 5 seemed watered down and limited compared to 4. I still had fun playing this game because, well, it is fun and the narrator is funny. This is still better thanEL PRESEDENTE IS BACK ONCE AGAIN!!! He might be back, but the game took a step back.

    One of the best options on Xbox One for a genre that it's almost forgotten. The game may not be perfect, but it's fun and very enjoyable on its solo campaign.

    Tropico 5 on consoles is a great port. It's a faithful recreation of the PC classic and a welcome addition to the scant city builders console players can enjoy.

    Don’t expect any revolutionary changes to the two year old PC release. But with added content, optimized controls and a solid core throughout you’ll find yourself spending more time on these islands than originally expected.
