Tropico 4 vs Westworld
Tropico 4
Tropico 4 is the fourth installment of the Tropico nation-building/simulation game franchise where you get to play as the all-powerful El Presidente of a tropical island country. This game is focused more on the politcal intrigue this time around as you'll need to play your cards right with your people and with the other global superpowers in hopes of keeping your power and of course, to keep increasing the size of your off-shore bank account. You can now appoint ministers to help you push through unpopular policies so you won't have to deal with the resulting fallout, and draft up national agendas to deal with challenges ranging from needs from your own Tropicans to an ongoing natural disaster that is decimating your population and your country.The economy aspect of the game has alos been reworked to allow for a robust trading system and to build economic ties with other nations. Tropico 4 is even more social media-linked, making it incredibly convenient for you to post your latest creations to either Twitter or Facebook with a click of a button.
As some of the fans have noticed, Tropico 4 is made slighter easier for new players to get into. Unlike the previous games where money can really be tight, the game's trading system opens up a whole new inflow of cash into your country in exchange for stuff you have too much of. It's kind of a win-win situation if you ask me, but some players might scoff at the reduced difficulty of this version of Tropico.
Westworld
Westworld is a 2D town management game much like Fallout Shelter, but is set in the dystopian world of HBO's hit TV show, Westworld. In this game, you are given complete access to the official Delos Park Training Simulation (DPTS). The simulation will allow you to not only build and control the park, but also to create, upgrade (in a wide variety of ways) and evolve your AI hosts. There are over 170 different AI hosts you can manufacture and collect, and it is up to you to match the right hosts with the correct guests. The game has many new park locations for you to unlock as well.The game may feel a bit bland due to its idle-like nature - there's no strategy or creativity involved, and a lot of the time, you'll just be tapping to collect stuff. Some have also complained that the host leveling system is very grindy since you'll need to get a ton of hosts just to level one up to its max level, and well, hosts aren't exactly easy to obtain.
That being said, if Westworld is your current obsession, these little issues aren't enough to deter you to give the game a try. The game is free after all.
