I went with the pre-made islands option, but there is also a map generator that has islands of different sizes and several other resources available at the beginning. As mentioned earlier, this is all about resource management which here comes in the form of economics, politics, money, and the number of citizens on your island. Another factor is how you tend to your land. Multiplayer is quite limited, though, and sometimes we miss some more onscreen information.
(It helps a lot.) Once you’re past that, you can dive into the real fun of the game. Tropico 5 is a fun 'city builder' for PS4, with great controls for a console strategy game, and lots of humor. Definitely spend a few hours in Tutorial Mode if you can. Rented the game before purchasing to see how the control were on PS4 compared to PC. But appreciated the option to get it on PS4. Still feel that getting on PC would have been redundant (having Tropico 3 & 4 already). The fact is that there are many console players out there who loved Civ IV on Xbox 360, and for them the island venue of Tropico 5 will be a trip worth taking.ĭeveloper Kalypso knows that for most newbies, however, T5 will be a learning experience. Didn't feel that Tropico 5 was different enough to justify an early purchase. The good news is that if you love strategy-based titles, and you’re wondering if Tropico 5 is still worth playing, the answer is yes. You have to want to give yourself over to a game that, frankly, isn’t very immersive by today’s standards. Tropico 5 (PS4) Review Good With a lack of strategy and simulation titles on the platform, Tropico 5 is as alluring as ever, despite the fact that the series hasn't changed much over the years. If you want to enjoy this game, you’ll need to look past all that. Its very similar to previous games, but doesnt crash like Tropico 4 crashed. The voice acting is really bland, the attempt at political satire is obvious, and the visuals are okay at best, if this was 2005. The answer for players new to this type of game is… maybe? It’s definitely a plus that Tropico 5 simplifies the gameplay, making the experience work pretty well on consoles, but I’m not sure that’s enough.Īesthetically, it’s still fairly unremarkable, a too on-the-nose, tone-deaf affair. review by Sammy Barker Wed 6th May 2015 Share: 7 Back when Bullfrog was considered a big name, construction games. The game was released on PCs over a year ago with solid reviews, but the big question is whether or not such a PC-minded title can even work well with the DualShock 4. Tropico Tropico 5 Review (PS4) Havana good time. The Xbox 360 version and Mac version are slated for Summer, and the PS4 version is slated for Fall. But, the controls are not optimized for PS4 that well, which makes micromanaging an awful thing to do. Of course, fans of the Civilization games (and they are legion) will tell you that these types of turn-based strategy games are all about the fun that comes from using tactics and, most of all, maintaining your resources. I wonder what they’ll think of Tropico 5… as played on the PS4. Tropico 5 is available on PC now through Steam and hits retail June 3, 2014. Tropico 5 is a great management game en many buildings really add something to your game.
