On the subject of transportation, there are new options here as well, such as tunnels through mountains and bus stops, giving the game more flexibility in how you interact with the environment. You still can't do much with the water, but it does mean you can now build bridges and ports to connect your islands' infrastructures together, and a few buildings need to exist one per island. The game now offers maps with multiple landmasses, and while their total land area doesn't much exceed the previous entries, it gives the maps a bit more diversity. Instead you can only adjust the building upkeep costs, which dictates how citizens view its quality and thus affecting their happiness.Īnother new element is the fact that you're no longer limited to just one island. Most buildings can be upgraded to keep them relevant as you progress through the eras, but you can no longer adjust the prices to charge the citizens at establishments or for housing. For example, you can build a literal pirate cove and conduct raids, which bring in additional bonus resources or citizens, or, later on, sabotage the world superpowers, and even amusingly steal world wonders. Tropico 6 has a few new structures to help further expand gameplay variety, though none of them are gamechangers. The controls are about the same as any other city building sim, and they work well for the most part, though it'd be nice to have more zoom flexibility – after a certain (low) point, you get zoomed way out to the maximum distance. You'll place roads, ensure your industry is working efficiently, and keep your finances afloat. Over time you'll gradually unlock new structures that either offer new services or provide better quality of living / better job satisfaction to the citizens. As in the past, and as in other games in the genre, players will start out with just a few available structures, be they homes, plantations, mills, factories, radio stations, banks, and so on and so forth. In this city management game, players assume the role of a dictator El Presidente who hopes to guide his small but ambitious tropical slice of paradise in the Caribbean to financial and cultural glory.
