Tropix

Tropix gives you the opportunity to design your own tropical island with cartoon style art.

When the game begins you are given a small sandy island inhabited by a single palm tree and a lonely monkey. The objective of the game is to upgrade your island so you can sell it on to buy a bigger island.

However, to do this you must earn sand dollars by completing mini-games. These can range from adventure games like vine swing, which all have a range of levels and bosses which must be defeated to progress to more simple games like coconut bowling and even Sudoku.

There are a wide range of mini-games available, and by completing certain goals you can find treasure maps which unlock even more games.

Tropix has a few other interesting features, including a screensaver option which displays your favourite island whilst you aren't using your computer.
