Tropico 2 is Unstable

Both of the included games are perfectly good citybuilders of their time, but there are some technical issues with Tropico 2: Pirate Cove. Tropico 1 works fine, but Pirate Cove loves to crash or fail to boot. I had to open the game in its safe mode version found in its files for it to even be playable at all, and even then, it often crashes. The transition from the main menu to gameplay and back is particularly fraught in this regard. It's difficult to tell if this is an issue with modern operating systems and the GOG port, or if this was a problem with the game on release (maybe why it's not mentioned very much in discussions about the series). Again, Tropico 1 runs fine and is well worth the very low GOG asking price on its own, but do be aware of the issues with the second game in this release.

I love it

Ok it is 2019 and there exist 6 parts now, still the Original Tropico is the best part.

Great Political Sims

Tropico: One of my favorite games. Really unique setting that kept it interesting with a lot of humor. It really makes you think. While I usually prefer "sandbox" mode for most games, and tend to get bored doing "scenarios", I found with this game it was the opposite. I absolutely loved the missions, many of them forced you to get into a different mode. The sandbox mode isnt too hard, and so I could follow a pretty simple formula of building things until I ran out of space. The scenarios had a variety and really made me make use of the games fun political side. One of my favorite games ever. Tropico 2: They tried a new setting, and it was a lot of fun, but I prefer the original a little better. Graphics are somewhat improved, but the interface is about the same, and it felt somewhat less unique and intriguing. Still had a blast playing it. Both of these games worked flawlessly on my XP laptop, no issues whatsoever.

Who knew being a dictator could be so relaxing?

Tropico is probably one of the most relaxing games I have ever played. Theres something about being a heartless dictator that just soothes my soul, I guess. Or maybe its the delightful soundtrack playing in the background. I don't really know, to be honest. Tropico is a pretty standard god-game. You play a newly elected president of a small Caribbean island who's in charge of bringing happiness and prosperity to the nation. You can do this in numerous ways including farming, mining, tourism, etc. Pretty basic stuff for this kind of game. Anyway, where the game really gets interesting is the interaction you have with your citizens. Each one of them has a unique personality and unique needs that come along with it. They are all grouped into different factions based on their beliefs (for example, a religious faction for people who go to church often or a military one for people who support the troops). In order to win elections, you need to appease these groups, as well as fulfilling basic needs for you people (like healthcare). True, in many scenerios you can win elections through fraud, but this makes the people unhappy which in turn makes the next election harder to win (or more expensive). Its a balancing act, that needs to be perfected in order to succeed. This is probably my biggest complain about the game, actually. Once you know how to run a decent island, its not too difficult to succeed. The harder scenerios in the game actually don't make running your nation harder, they just make winning much more difficult. Its difficult to explain why this isn't as fun as it should be, but basically it boils down to seeing how fast a player can make a booming economy. Since almost all scenerios end up going down this road, the game can feel a bit repetitive after a while. There are also a lot of little gripes I have about the game, but to be honest most of them don't bother me enough to discuss here. Despite what you may think, I really enjoy this game. As silly as it may seem, the music is the best part. There's something really relaxing about playing a laid back god-game while listening to relaxing island music that really relieves stress. I highly recommend this game for anyone who just wants to sit at their computer after a long day and let the tropical breezes of Tropico carry them away. I should mention something about Tropico 2 since its in here. Like the other reviews mention, its basically Tropico, but with a piratey theme. I honestly haven't met anyone who plays the second game more than they played the first. Still, its worth a look.
