Tropico 3 (2011)

Tropico is a construction and city building game series where the player assumes the role of the leader of a tropical banana republic. Tropico 1 (2001), Tropico 3 (2009) and Tropico 4 (2011) have a modern setting which gives the player the control of small island during the cold war. Tropico 3 and Tropico 4 use the same engine and the same models.
