Tropico 4

A city-building and management game where you rule a tropical island as its dictator. You build up the economy, keep the population content with edicts or pressure, and handle foreign relations in a Cold War setting. The tone is comedic, and it plays as a single-player sandbox with the option to pause. Is it your kind of game?
