I thought this game was easy but it's becoming complex and complex as I immerse in the world of Tropico that I often watch Tropico gameplays online just to guide me! This same complexity really got me hooked into the game. This really opened up my perspective about how politics can get dirty just for you to keep your office. More

I love all kinds of simulation games but many of them lack the multiplayer function that I've been looking for. Tropico 5 lets me craft my government and interact with my friends and other players all over the world. This makes for a new and exciting experience every time! More
by Jesús Gallegos
This game would be a great tool to teach players what it's like to lead a country. I have played the previous installments of the series and they did well with showing the tribulations of being a political leader. Having co-op gameplay this time around would make it easy to see how it is to work with others while in power. More

Well I wanted a game that simulated governments, and how to run them, ive tried other games like the democracy series but it really didn't fulfill my needs. So I decided to look for other games, and Realpolitiks was suggested, and after playing it a while this was really what I was looking for. It has everything I wanted, It allowed me to dive head first into running my own government with real factors, I was aloud to run wild with real restraints. Overall im amazed! More

I play Europa in multiplayer mode. I like the freedom and flexibility this game gives me when it comes to decision making. For beginners, the historical trivia shouldn't constrain you in a way but let it guide you to decide for the bigger picture. I More

I enjoy spending my time with this game and trying to overcome the many challenges faced in Tropico 4. As El Presidente, I have a government to run and an island to rebuild, thanks to that V.P. from you-know-where. This is a great government simulation game with many of the same problems and issues faced by real politicians. More
by Vincent Henderson
my friend bought this game for me because she knows how much i loved playing this. i must say this is a total ramp up from tropico 3 although the gameplay doesnt go far from 3. the side quests are somehow emphasized here and i find that by doing them, they actually add more value to my gameplay.

This is a fantastic game which allows me to run a country!! I've always wondered what it's like to run an African country and D3 Africa gave me that experience!! Various African countries to choose from to play with. As the government I legitemized the usual illegal activities like gambling and prostituion in order to boom the economy and it somehow helped alleviate the poor in my country. More

Ultimately, Hearts of Iron IV is a scenario, not a sandbox. A grand and big scenario yet it is not an open-ended playground like that of Crusader Kings or the famous Europa Universalis. I am recommending this government simulation game because among all the Paradox's strategy games, this one has a unique sense of play during battles. More

I had high hopes for this game, but it didn't meet my expectations. It has too many limitations on game play that limit you from truly making the kingdom your own. I enjoyed some of the plot lines and the dueling, but not a great game overall. More
by Vishal Subramanium
I had a fun time playing this game. The graphics was cool and it had a entertaining story.

Again, Paradox is a game company known to develop strategy sandbox games on a grand scale--this is particularly true with this government simulator. I consider this as one of the most challenging yet rewarding strategy games. Europa Universalis is among the league. If you enjoy whack-a-mole while managing resources, this is for you. More
by Guo Hu
I believe CK2 is the best story generator out there in terms of government simulation. The graphics may not be at par with other games but man, the history just keeps on getting interesting even if I've played this for almost 2 months. I keep on discovering new things like the pre-set politics that really stirs up the political air. I can choose among staggering number of possibilities on how I would want to turn the tide of war and era. More

Citystate is among the government simulators that I really like. Even though the graphics are low res and with very little visual appeal, this focuses much on the politics of the game rather than micromanaging various economical aspects which tend to be complext later on. I don't have that luxury of brain neurons to decide too complicatedly so Citystate really fits my lifestyle hehe More

I love to play strategy games. This is one of my favorites. I not just get to delve in the details of history and learn, but feel powerful to make it change its course. The different routes that I can take keeps it interesting. More

While this solution is, indeed, a country sim game, it lacked the realism and veracity I was looking for in a simulator. I found it good for quick fun, but poor for any kind of complicated long-term strategy, which was really what I had been hoping for.
Moreby Brian Salazar
Don't waste your time playing this game, its unrealistic. The game is pro-Trump so if you aren't a supporter dont bother playing the game.
