Tropico 5 is a role-playing game developed by Haemimont Games for the Play Station 4 platform. The player takes on the role of El Presidente, a dictator of the Tropico island, and must develop it through four eras, from the Colonial Era to the Modern Times. The game features mechanics such as trading, managing resources, research, and diplomacy.

One of the standout features of Tropico 5 is the strong focus on the citizens. The island's prosperity depends on the happiness of its people and the balance between ten in-game factions. The multiplayer mode expands on these mechanics, allowing players to share resources, help each other, and even declare war. The campaign mode includes 15 missions, and the sandbox mode allows players to create their own island and manage it, completing different tasks and developing it through the ages.
