Tropicans!
El Presidente is thrilled to be in the running for this year’s Steam Awards, and demands nothing less than absolute success for Tropico.

Unfortunately, it seems that El Presidente’s infamous ‘guaranteed win’ strategy doesn’t work so well outside of Tropico, so we need your help to wrangle the vote for our lovable leader.

So vote for Tropico 6 as 'Game of the Year 2019'…or else! Of course, El Prez would be especially pleased if you vote for him in other categories, too.
