tropico 3 or anno 1404

Which one of these would you say is the better island city builder? Any other games that are similar?

Anno 1404 by quite a way.

I'd agree in so far that once the humour value of Tropico has worn off, there's not a lot left to the game... i'd hoped for so much more from it

haevn't tried Anno1404 though.

Tropico was made by Anglo-Saxons and is very funny but pretty simple.

Anno 1404 is made by germans and includes all of their racial stereotypes. I like it!

I would say Anno, but I still think that Tropico is a good game

Anno 1404 all the way !!!! very addictive game ...

+1 for Anno, bought this the other week, been playing it solidly since hehe. its by far best city builder i've played to date.

Anno, seems to be a lot more freedom and room to build and is more addictive than tropico. Tropico should have had some island warfare like anno.

Another vote for anno

Not played 1404 but I got bored of the repetitive gameplay of Tropico.

I've got them both and sank quite a bit of time into them, but there's no question that Anno 1404 is far superior.

After a very short time the fun of Tropico 3 wears off, but Anno 1404 remains interesting all the time.
