Feral Interactive has teased that Tropico – a tongue-in-cheek simulation game in which you are the dictator of an island nation – is coming to the iPad later in the year …

The game, currently available for Mac and Windows, was first released in 2001. It has consistently achieved high ratings in reviews, and was one of the top 10 games in the US, UK and Germany for months after its release.

A city builder and hilarious political simulator, Tropico for iOS brings Kalypso’s acclaimed series to iPad for the very first time.

Devour the teaser trailer on YouTube (below) for a sweet taste of island life.

Game Informer described the game as a must for all sim fans.
