I played number 3 and thought it was ok but I can't say I really enjoyed
it. A shame really as it was genre I used to like having spent many
hours playing both Caesar III and Pharaoh.
The original Tropico still works, though it no longer runs in hardware
mode. My wife still plays it. So does Tropico 2, but that has a pirate
theme and is harder to get to run (I had to install dgVodoo2 for its
DirectX wrapper).
The original Tropico will give you a similar experience to the games you
list. Old school isometric. Highly recommended.
