Update (v.13) 'Esparcidor de Estiércol'



Fellow Tropicans,

Tropico 6 has just received Update 13 – Esparcidor de Estiércol. This update introduces the new ‘Flophouse’ building - providing, well... a roof (at least) for the poor - and the ‘Manure Spreader’, which should help put all that llama poo to good use.

By popular request, we’ve also added 3 new multiplayer maps, along with a handful of improvements and bug fixes.

Viva Tropico!

Faithfully yours,

The Tropican Ministry of Binary Magic
