GamesRadar+Nathan HellerMay 20144.5/5 starsTropico 5 cuts out the fat of previous entries and builds upon its strongest features. While the new dynasty system is disappointing, the narrative context provided by eras and world events is outstanding.

Post Arcade (National Post)Scott LilwallMay 20148.5/10Tropico 5 isn't revolutionary in any of its changes. But with deeper gameplay and some smart tweaks to the formula, it is deserving of at least another term in office

Rock, Paper, ShotgunAlec MeerMay 2014There are some bum notes both tonally and strategically, Tropico old hands will find the bones of the things over-familiar, and despite having tons of things to fiddle with ultimately it's hard not call it a lightweight game. I really think it has to be, though.

Hardcore GamerSean HannleyMay 20143/5Until the rest of the game is released in the form of DLC, at least, it's hard to imagine a good reason to go with Tropico 5 instead of Tropico 4 unless the addition of a tech tree gets you excited.
