Innovation has led to a more enticing offering

People have always enjoyed gaming. The world’s population play board games with loved ones, they used to sample classic products like Tetris on a gaming device like a Game Boy, and people continue to explore online gaming thanks to improved internet access, while also venturing to renowned gaming locations like the Bellagio, a top venue that is among the ten best casinos in the world. While these options understandably appeal, many of the gaming products people can sample in today’s world have reached new heights, too.

Thankfully, for Nigeria’s domestic games industry, there are some homegrown companies making an impact in this lucrative category of entertainment. These companies, plus a range of other respected companies in Africa, are aiming to record global success and make their very own impact in an area of entertainment that recorded total revenues of $180.3 billion in 2021 alone.
