Overview
Description

Black & White 2: Battle of the Gods is an official expansion pack for Lionhead Studios' acclaimed god game, Black & White 2. In this installment, players face an opposing deity for the very first time as the remnants of the defeated Aztec nation resurrect themselves through grisly rituals to spawn a new god of death, raising terrifying undead armies to seek ultimate vengeance. Building upon the core mechanics of the original title, the expansion challenges players to flex their divine powers once again. You must nurture your followers, command your giant Creature, and manage miraculous interventions to defend your civilization against a supernatural enemy that commands the forces of the afterlife.

Tropico puts you in the shoes of "El Presidente," the ruler of a small Caribbean island nation. Manage the economy, appease various political factions, and build a thriving paradise while keeping a comedic edge. The game blends city-building, strategy, and satire, offering deep customization and a humorous take on political power. Play on PC or Mac and experience the classic 2001 title that still feels fresh today.
