If everyone in the family has a good job and a good home then complaints are going to be few and far between. The graphics engine for Tropico is the same that was used for Railroad Tycoon 2 with a few tweaks and improvements. The game is fully 3-D from the terrain down to the buildings and the people who inhabit your happy little dictatorship. 3-D cards aren't required but do help speed things up a bit. The isometric view sometimes causes problems, but these are easily fixed by rotating the camera view.
Interfaces are fairly simple since most of the game is run by point and click.
The only major failing here is a lack of shortcuts which, as I understand, has been fixed in the 1.01 patch. Read more Feature stories. The High School Network. All rights reserved world wide. Site Privacy Statement.
