After some research, I went for Tropico 4 as my first entry into the franchise and it's safe to say that this game is addictve. I wish I had have discovered this game sooner. It reminds me of a mash up of Sim City and Civilisation. Despite being an 'aged game', all of the graphics and UI work perfectly for me in 2026.
I do not know how this game flew under my radar for over 15 years but it was alot of fun. I got 100h from a single map. Sadly it is showing its age. The UI is extremly clunky and barebones. Due to engine limitations it has hard caps like a cap on population of 3000 or so. There is zero management tools for imports and exports, your industry just does what it wants without you being able to have any insights. All in all it has alot of gameplay features and especially the 60s-80s soviet feeling I was missing in games like Workers and Resources. Similar to Cities Skylines 1 it could be the ultimate City / Colony builder if it wasnt limited by the age of its engine.
