An island banana republic that has social media? Sure, why not. Tropico 6’s latest downloadable content includes a social media riff.
Celebrate your gloriousness
The latest game in the series, Tropico 6 is the best one in a long time. Loaded up with some excellent looks and tons of play possibilities, Tropico 6 already has a solid name. It’s slowly being ever-improved too, with a host of DLC.
The latest pack of those is Spitter, and it just might bring the coolest additions yet. The biggest of those is actually called Spitter. Of course, that’s an obvious riff on one of the biggest social media networks.
Spitter DLC adds a new fame feature to Tropico 6. Using Spitter, the only social media app approved for use in Tropico, players can make a name for themselves through interactions with faction leaders, courtships with influencers and connections with celebrities. They can also build new attractions such as the Rehab Center and Beauty Farm to ensure that citizens and visitors have everything they need right at their doorstep.
