This possibly has the most hours logged on my Steam account so I should probably talk about it. Colony/building sims have always been my addiction, and this one has been the most addictive to me, because the objective to reward drip feed is constant and it is very easy to pick up. The game is always egging you on to build more specific buildings, another school, more farms, a prison, etc., all to watch the two big numbers, your popularity and your treasury go up. You're not so distant from your island that it feels less like a place and more a graph, nor are you expected to micromanage everybody, it's a very good balance, Where the game fails significantly though it informing the player when something is wrong. Suddenly you'll find yourself deep in inescapable debt with no explanation, or your popularity will steadily tick down no matter what you do to satisfy your population's needs, rebel threats will go from none to medium in an instant and never go away. The game is also very bad at explaining it's mechanics, for example how can a house be more efficient or why are criminals on your island is bad from a gameplay standpoint. Tropico 6 is still incredibly addictive, but it could be better.
