Critic Reviews

Attack of the Fanboy - Jordan Kamm - 3.5 / 5 stars

Tropico 6 is a blast when things are going well, but frustrating when they aren't.


COGconnected - Lillian King - 82 / 100

Eurogamer - Malindy Hetfeld - No Recommendation / Blank

A new developer doesn't rock the boat in what's an enjoyable if only gently iterative outing for the construction and management sim.


Game Revolution - Alex Santa Maria - 4 / 5 stars

Gaming Nexus - Dave Gamble - 9 / 10

GamingBolt - Ravi Sinha - 8 / 10

Returning to what made fans fall in love with the series, Tropico 6 is an endearing, personality-filled city-builder that lets you think outside of the box. El Presidente has never looked this good, bribes or no.


Handsome Phantom - Holly Furman - 9 / 10

We highly suggest this game for any fans of strategy games, even if they are new to the Tropico series.


IGN - T.J. Hafer - 7.3 / 10

Tropico 6 stands out as an in-depth city-builder with a strong personality, but its economic systems are unwieldy.


IGN Spain - José Cabrera - Spanish - 6.8 / 10

Tropico 6 is an entertaining fun, which guarantees many hours of management and strategy, with a well-leveled difficulty. Although it is inevitable not to think that it is a low-risk and original work.


PC Gamer - Phil Savage - 79 / 100

An entertaining but unambitious sequel that collects up the best features of previous games and adds in some interesting new twists.


PCGamesN - Jeremy Peel - 7 / 10

Limbic has turned down its opportunity for revolución in favour of reinforcing the rule of El Presidente - a safe pair of hands for colourful city-building and wry commentary on the abuse of democracy.Jeremy Peel


Rock, Paper, Shotgun - Alec Meer - Unscored

It is, very much, A Tropico Game, but it knows how to go big, how to feel like it’s playing with the citybuilder big boys, instead of remaining in its safe soft play corner. There’s plenty of stuff I’d change, especially tonally and in terms of international relationships, but I played it happily until I couldn’t see straight.


Saving Content - Scott Ellison II - 4 / 5 stars

Limbic Entertainment has breathed new life into Tropico that seemingly had offered all it could with the last entry. Tropico 6 eschews the things that didn't work, keeps the things that did, and introduces tons of great new features. I enjoy how the way the new systems play off of one another, that landmasses change how traffic is shaped, the genius levels of pirating world wonders from their original locations, all adds up to a streamlined offering that lets the personality shine through. Tropico 6 doesn't miss a beat with its latest entry, even with a new developer behind the series – in fact, it is the best of the series because of it.


Spaziogames - Daniele Spelta - Italian - 7.7 / 10

Tropico 6 is the natural evolution for the series, but not a revolution.


TechRaptor - Kyle Johnson - 7 / 10

While Tropico 6 maintains the series' humor and complexity, it sometimes gets bogged down under the weight of its own systems. There's plenty of fun to be found here, but you'll be left wanting more.


The Digital Fix - Tom Bedford - 7 / 10

It's the Tropico you know and love - but with a new developer, it should have had more than that.


The Games Machine - Nicolò Paschetto - Italian - 7.5 / 10

Witty political satire? Check. Lovely latin music soundtrack? Check. Solid city builder gameplay? Check. Is this Tropico 6? Tropico 5? Tropico 4? Loyal Penultimo would struggle to spot the difference, and players might decide at some point to ditch El Presidente for a new one bringing some fresh air... if only there was one in sight.


Windows Central - Brendan Lowry - 4.5 / 5 stars

Ultimately, Tropico 6 is a game that any fan of city builders will enjoy, and I highly recommend checking it out if you're one of those people.
