Tropico 3 Gold Edition, the definitive banana republic simulator that puts the fate of an entire nation in your hands, is now available 60% off on GOG.com. That's only $5.99 until Thursday, November 15, 10:59AM GMT.

"El Presidente! El Presidente! The people are gathering outside the hacienda! They have machetes, and clubs, and petrol bombs! That last round of tax increases was too much. The militia scattered in panic. There's no escape! They want blood, El Presidente! They want blood!"
"Well, my dear prime minister, it seems that the push has come to shove. We'll have to face the consequences of our actions. We'll have to step up, and admit our faults to our people. We'll have to throw ourselves at their mercy. Of course, by "we" I mean "you". They will probably hang you, my poor man. But the important thing is, that the republic will prevail! I will lead it to a brighter future once again."

Tropico 3 Gold Edition will put you in a position of absolute power over a small tropical island and give you the chance to shape its future--may it be prosperous and bright or bleak and oppressive. All depends on your capability to manage a plethora of dynamically changing factors, and your inclination for despotism or benevolence. You'll even get the opportunity to walk the streets of your city-state yourself and witness the everyday happiness and prosperity of your nation. There's a procedural mission generator, so no two games will look alike and the Gold Edition of the game comes complete with the Absolute Power expansion.

Time to grow a beard, put on your sunglasses, and strap all those medals and decorations to your uniform. Everything to get that "El Presidente" vibe goin', while you grab and play Tropico 3 Gold Edition, for only $5.99.
I already own it...


and played it for 15 minutes only but I must admit - it looks promising. The problem is pretty obvious - no time to play... argh!

Does this version feature new soundtrack or it is the same as in Tropico ?

Question too : I have (and love, and suck at) Tropico 1. Is there a reason to get that one ?
Good game if you enjoy ruining i mean running your own island.
Good promo for a good game but I still need to finish Tropico reloaded on my backlog before I get to this...

In the meantime, Still waiting for that Sine Mora release here on GOG, Kalypso...

Yup, I'm pretty sure it's different and quite nice actually. The question is... is this an argument against or pro? ;)
Great game, but somewhat devalued since it was in Groupees BeMine 5

are you asking whether you should get the sequel to a game you love? isn't this kind of a no-brainer?

Tropico 3 is definitely less unforgiving than Tropico 1. So there are pretty good chances that only the first part of your statement will be true ;) The question is whether you love at least partially originate from visuals? Because if you absolutely love isometric view you may not like 3D look of Tropico 3.

Nope.

I'd say the first part of your post pretty much answers the question in the latter. If you enjoy Tropico there's a good chance you'll enjoy this one as well. Or you might enjoy it even better, as there's a good deal of new ideas and mechanics in this iteration.

Yeah, I found it pretty confusing some time ago... he/she referred to the launching price but the regular one was 15$ from the very beginning
