A story-driven VR puzzle adventure set in modern-day West Africa.

Why it matters: CloserLook VR: Oldways is one of the few VR titles to emerge from Nigeria and among a small number of original VR games produced anywhere on the African continent. Built entirely from custom assets by a small independent team in Abuja, it puts African storytelling at the centre of an immersive VR experience, demonstrating that the continent's development community is moving beyond mobile into emerging platforms.
