Planet Zoo vs Tropico Reloaded
Planet Zoo
Planet Zoo is one of the most anticipated zoo simulation game that is currently being developed by none other than the experts of simulation games, Frontier Development, the very people behind such successful titles as Jurassic World Evolution, Planet Coaster and Elite Dangerous. Similar to their previous titles, Planet Zoo is set to dominate the zoo sim/management genre with incredibly in-depth customization, different biomes to build your zoos in, and of course, lots and lots of animals!Although Planet Zoo is still pretty much a work in progress, what we could see in the game definitely made our jaws drop in amazement. The game has an impressive lineup of animals, and we’re sure they are planning to add even more as the game inches ever closer to its release date; plus, almost everything in the game is customizable, including your animals if you know how genetics work. Similar to their other games, Planet Zoo has Steam Workshop support, and from what we can see, an enthusiastic community who will keep the game alive years after its release.
Tropico Reloaded
Tropico Reloaded is a strategic nation-building game that may feel a little like one of those really in-depth city-building simulation games. However, playing the role of the leader of a banana republic rather than simply being the mayor, you have a wider reach and influence over your people - you can choose to rule with an iron grip or with benevolence - and also the ability to amass an army to defend your said republic from external invaders and internal dissidents. Of course, you can also choose to be corrupt and set aside some funds for your swiss bank account.The game's expansion, Tropico: Paradise Island allows you to not only bring natural disasters on your people but also build tourist attractions as you open up your country for others to visit and of course, to bring in tons of cash. This reloaded version even includes Tropico 2, which will see you ruling over a pirate island as the Pirate King.
Tropico lets players enjoy the fun of managing their own country in their own respective ways much like a simulation game would, and yet, there is also a strategic element to it as you'll need to lead your armies or pirate crew to defend your people from time to time. This game may appeal to fans of city-builders or people who have always imagine themselves leading a nation.
