Tropico 5 campaign or sandbox series#

The voice acting in Tropico 5 is well done, with some amusing characters, such as the proper and a bit shady Lord Oaksworth and, of course, your right-hand man and advisor, General Pentultimo, who always has an amusing quip to introduce newly unlocked technologies as well as presenting a good number of the missions in the game. the kind of game that would go great with a margarita, piГ±a colada or a muy delicioso non-alcoholic Iron Beer. Tropico 5 provides a wonderful island ambiance that puts me in the mood for tacos with pineapple mango salsa. In fact, I find myself whistling or humming the island music when I'm not playing the game when I find myself having a hard time remembering how the music goes, I know it's time to play some more. The presentation in Tropico 5 is wonderfully executed, with artistic watercolor loading screens, entertaining historical dictator facts, lush jungles, vibrantly colored shacks and tenements and catchy, uptempo island music with a Cubano/Latino flair. I will be approaching Tropico 5 from the viewpoint of someone new to the series. That having been said, don't expect a lot of comparison to earlier games in the series.

While some readers may be familiar with earlier games in the series and, in fact, we have reviews of several of the other games in the series, Tropico 5 is my first experience with the series.

With at least one game in the series that didn't stick to the numeric naming convention, it is not merely the 5th, either. As the name would imply, Tropico 5 is not the first game in the Tropico series.
