About This Content Come with El Presidente on a journey through time and space in the new ‘Surf’s Up!’ DLC for Tropico 5. In the not-too-distant future, Earth is under threat of alien incursion. The only hope for Tropico lies with the wise dolphins of the Pacific Ocean, who hold the power to veto this decision through bureaucracy! The Tropicans of tomorrow have asked El Presidente to utilise the brand new Dolphinarium building in order to attract tourists, make money and save the beautiful sea creatures. Help protect the island from unnecessary space tolls and you might just find the answer to the question of life, the universe and everything.New standalone scenario: “Surf’s Up!” – Save the dolphins, save the worldNew building: The Dolphinarium – Fill your tourists with awe and marvel at the wonders of natureNew dynasty avatar accessory: Look like a professional marine-biologist with The Diving MaskNew sandbox map: QualichiNew music track and additional voice recordings 7aa9394dea Title: Tropico 5 - Surfs Up!Genre: RPG, Simulation, StrategyDeveloper:Haemimont GamesPublisher:Kalypso Media DigitalFranchise:TropicoRelease Date: 8 Jan, 2015 Tropico 5 - Surfs Up! Addons I mean, I like Hitchhiker's, but this is kinda lacking.. If you think of the core game, it is not that bad. Buy it with the bundle if you want.. Playing the scenario, Surf\u2019s Up, which comes with this DLC was fun and challenging. Well worth the money I have spent.. There are dolphins and Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy references.No sharks though.. The mission was too easy to beat and not particularly interesting. Overally second weakest DLC. Recommended only if you want to have a Dolphinarium which comes with the scenario.. Overpriced DLC adds an overpriced entertainment\/tourist building that is basically just an ornate dolphin tank ($18,000, more than a power plant). The single mission it adds is also a miserable experience, including a side-mission that, if you fail, permanently removes one of your dynasty members.. It's another single-mission DLC. If you've bought at least one for Tropico 5, you know what to expect: a costume that you'll never see, a building that does the same thing as another building, and a sandbox-style single-player mission (which is really what I look forward to most of the time).Surf's Up features the Dolphinarium as its new building. It provides entertainment as well as being a tourist attraction. That's about it. No unique features; just another entertainment building.The mission was something I actually enjoyed. It's a Star Wars\/Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy parody, and respect to the devs for pulling it off. The usual clever, witty, Tropican charm with El Presidente forming an alliance with the doplhins. The DLC introduces a new event chain in exporting fish, building Dolphinariums and so on to gain "moral superiority". The mission itself is an economic\/military mission, with the central objective being to build 8 Dolphinariums at inflated prices while defending against the "Grin Pears" eco-terrorist group.Maybe I've been spoiled by the Waterborne expansion, but the *one* objective in this mission is a little disappointing, and outside of the frequent military invasions, provides no challenge, as there is no time limit or anything else stopping you from being an economic powerhouse and building eight Dolphinariums once you get the money.Though I had a breeze playing the mission, as with most DLCs, the meaningless, piecemeal content is a turn-off for an outright purchase, and getting this as a bundle on sale seems to be the thing to do.https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=_PdORlPotlw
