It would be nice to have both friendly and kill you on sight African tribes, also even though lot's of the whites there would be evil most of them were neutral and probably there were lots of god ones there too(even though some of these goodies where trying to convert natives which isn't technically good), also I would like the choice to play as either a Tribal Champion or as a Whitey not-evil Colonist
 
I'd love to see an RPG taking place in Africa... or any region / time period other than medieval Europe. I'm hoping that Logic Artists will eventually make an Expeditions game set in Africa.
 
Just give up, folks.. This is possibly the only thing we can expect from African devs, game created by South African studio Free Lives:

It’s time to make some dicks look silly. Yep, Genital Jousting has arrived on Steam Early Access today. It’s an online and local multiplayer game about penetrating your friends, and yes, it’s as crude as that sounds.

Everybody plays as a creature made of male genitalia in this game: a flaccid penis, a pair of inflated testicles, and an anus. You score a point in each round for either being penetrated—another player inserting their penis into your anus—or penetrating someone else. If you manage both in a single round then you get two points. It’s a game about achieving orgiastic connections.

FFS Africa..
 
This is (long defunct) thread on games set in Africa during the Colonial period of 1879-1890 not... fantasy games made in Africa.
 
"close enough" probably goes well for this case, since there are very few games about/from Africa.

Apart from Lion King I haven't seen a lot of Africa-setting fantasy scenarios... :I

I meant that fantasy in general is overdone. There's only so much magic and mythical monsters I can take in any setting before wanting something else.
 
Oh, right, well... cut them some slack though :D They're just going from the unicef rice-plate to actually programming a playable game :V
 
Norway only has one fairly-okay selling computer game also, that was fantasy up-to-here ("The longest journey")

I think fantasy as a genre is an easy "foot in the door", because, well, it's fantasy: It's a very wide-open genre where you can cram almost anything you like into it. The Norwegian one was a typical "extra-dimensional world"-scenario, so they could go medieval and futuristic, and basically have their cake and eat it too

The game is also quite good, I was surprised. Very text heavy though, VERY text heavy... and by now outdated graphics. And a bit of an assholish cliffhanger "buy our future games plz" but all in all a good narrative experience.

(Oh, wait, we also had Anarchy online. I guess that one too was futuristic fantasy-ish)
