tropico was well it was ok i still my copy laying around. But it gets boring quick theres only so much you can do & only so much housing. & most of the time its not even worth it to make it a dictatorship id love to pull of a real totalitarian regime in the game but its close to impossible without having to fill the liberty gap with newpapers & tv. Then you lose that high bonus from democracy most of my games my regime ehh administration was held up by the liberty bonus. Highest pop i managed to hit was around 800 without it getting hard to control. small pops you can get reelected no prob but any higher & your asking for trouble.
