In the latest installment of the City Builder RTS Tropico, you return to your role as El Presidente, Leader of the Tropican Islands. The lush islands of the Caribbean need guidance to lead them from the Colonial Era, to Modern day. Build cities, make allies and enemies of the other world powers, and keep your budget balanced, the basics of any good RTS drive this game home with intricate features for each. The Best part of Tropico is the ability to Role Play El Presedente however you'd like! Communist Idealism appealing to you, then rule with perfect equality for your citizens. Start a Democracy and let the peole have their say in everything. Play non Militant and strive for peace without arms. However you'd like to rule, be it with an Iron fist, or a soft voice, the choice is yours! The only time you have a real deadline is in the Colonial Era, where you have to declare your independence before being removed from power. You can stay in any other Era as you please, unlocking new technology with each, allowing you more control, and balancing. The economy is toucy, and hard to recover if you hit a monitary snare. And balancing the Factions is IMPOSSIBLE, in fact the game tells you this multiple times, I suggest you decide fast where your loyalties lie. The tutorial feel over informative, and only served to frustrate me, wondering the value of this information to actual game play. Sandbox mode did better easing me into the game ten the tutorial, though the information in the Tutorials is invaluable, it doesn't fell like it's in a good order to learn the game. With 15 Story missions and over a dozen sandbox islands, that you can rule however you wish, Tropico 6 can bring you endless enjoyment on your Xbox One! Expand

    Tropico 6 on Xbox One is a tasteful satire on the inner workings of politics. But it’s also a satisfying simulator of building and organising your very own nation. It’s a fun and challenging process of gradually erecting a complex infrastructure and then seeing everything function like clockwork. And of course, it’s also all about the contents of that Swiss bank account.

    Limbic Entertainment has done a great job overall, and Tropico 6 is a fantastic addition to the strategy genre. With the amount of content in the “Missions” mode alone, I feel it's well worthwhile to try it out if you're a fan of the genre. Some gamers may thrive in a game that literally gives you every option you could ever think of in addition to a ton of quests and challenges to keep you on your toes. Although I didn't care too much for Multiplayer, I thoroughly enjoyed the core campaign 'missions' and really enjoyed learning how the entire game works through the tutorial chapters.

    Tropico 6 is fantastically addictive, and worth checking out regardless of whether you’re into the minute details of urban planning, or if you’re more a big picture kind of person. Whichever it is, you’ll find plenty to love here.
