We were first surprised to discover how deep the game goes after hearing about Afrika years ago and patiently waiting to play the game out for ourselves. In fact, we feel more at ease referring to Afrika as a simulator than a game because of how intricately you can set up your camera. In that regard, Afrika turns as an excellent educational resource for aspiring photographers. Even part of the in-game explanation of practical photographic methods.
You’ll be given a variety of clientele in Afrika who need your photographic skills. These customers write you with explicit requests for the kinds of photos they want. It is then up to you to go into the field and make the delivery, earning virtual currency in return. To acquire the perfect photo in Africa, you’ll need to exercise a lot of patience. Similar to real photography, there is a lot of waiting and cautiously circling. Despite when you eventually get the chance to set up your shot, it’s a very rewarding feeling. It’s a cool feature that the game even superimposes some of your images onto magazine covers.
