In Tropico 6, the goal is to transform a small Caribbean island into a thriving nation. Players build roads, establish production chains, export resources and attract tourists. At the same time, they have to keep different population groups happy, maintain international relations and stay in power through regular elections. Those who aren’t interested in playing by the rules can also resort to propaganda and military force. One of the biggest additions compared to its predecessor is the introduction of island groups, which can be connected using bridges and shipping routes. Players can also send agents on raids to steal famous landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower or the Statue of Liberty.
For the first time in the series, Tropico 6 allows players to connect multiple islands.
Players can also run a space program in Tropico 6, generating revenue and boosting public approval.
In GameStar’s review (in German), Tropico 6 received a solid score of 81 out of 100. The reviewers praised the wide range of building options and described the game as a successful blend of economics and politics. However, they felt it lacked challenge. On Steam, the city builder has received nearly 30,000 reviews, with a positive rating of 87%. Steam Deck compatibility is listed as “Playable.” Now could be a particularly good time to jump in, as Tropico 7 is scheduled for release on January 28, 2027.
