Tropico: Mucho Macho Edition uses a mouse and keyboard pretty well. The control scheme is very fluid. Also, the manual is great for two reasons. One it reads well. How do I know? I asked it. Two, if you should lose it, there is a website on the CD where you can get an electronic manual to view as well. Not only do you have the strategy guide, but the manual as well. Hey, you've got to love it. Install is rather large, since it's three games worth of scenarios, but it's well worth it.
Riot Rundown: The 12 new scenarios are great. The strategy guide is great although it feels as if I'm cheating to use it. Use it only if you get stuck, as it can take some of the fun out of the game. There's also a feature on this CD that lets the developers tell their side of the story. They explain everything from the making of Tropico to the concept art and music. It was a good listen, but the fact that their words are two sentences ahead of what their mouth is doing was a bit aggravating. I got past that for some good laughs. They're some zany guys. All in all, if you don't have Tropico yet (haven't you read my other reviews?), then you need to get Tropico: Mucho Macho Edition! My only regret is that more buildings or tourists weren't added which takes the game's score down just a bit. If I get a new box, I want something else new to the game as well. Scenarios and manuals are fun, but I needed a little more sour cream on this taco.
