Tropico 4

Mining is easy and profitable
Date played: May 19th
Platform: PC
Time played: 120 minutes
Session fun rating: 9/10

I completed the first mission, but I'm not exactly sure how... I just completed a bunch of objectives such as export 500 crude oil or hire a ministry. The ministry is one of the more important new features as it unlocks the higher level edicts and buildings.

Then I played a good chunk of the next mission where I had to help an American set up a successful mining operation. I focused on production and cash and spend less on other things. It works so far... This is the best version of Tropico yet and I actually find it better than any type of sim, including Sim City.
