Rating Summary
This is a strategy game in which players rule the nation of Tropico by tending to citizens' needs (e.g., food, shelter, entertainment, security) while also navigating politics among foreign powers. As dictator (“El Presidente”), players can order their officers to assassinate rebellious citizens. Players can also command soldiers and tanks to quash rebel uprisings or protests; these conflicts are accompanied by realistic gunfire and small explosions. Events occasionally reference suggestive material: “Your family's rather rollicking love life has lead to an unexpected pregnancy”; “…picture me drinking a glass of milk as it runs down my chin from my big soft lips”; “Go, have fun, do the mile high!” The dialogue also contains references to alcohol (e.g., “A preacher I once knew vowed to drink any and all alcoholic beverages he can find…”; “I also wrote their demands on my hand so as not to forget them when I got drunk”). Players can grow tobacco, as well as build cigar factories and rum distilleries in order to create export industries. The word “bastard” appears in dialogue.
