Afrika, known as Hakuna Matata in Hong Kong, South Korea, Taiwan and Southeast Asia, is a photography and safari simulation video game for the PlayStation 3. Developed by Rhino Studios and published by Natsume Inc.,[1] the game was first announced in a promotional video during the Sony press conference at E3 2006. Afrika has been referred to as being similar to the Nintendo 64 title Pokémon Snap.[2]

Gameplay

In Afrika, the player assumes the role of a photojournalist hired to take images of various animals in Africa, as the name indicates. Gameplay is mission-driven; players receive e-mails at the base camp instructing them to which animals they must photograph. Players may then travel by foot, car, or hot air balloon to the areas where the requested animals are found in order to photograph them.[3] The in-game camera is controlled by the Sixaxis. Depending on the quality of the photograph taken, the player will earn in-game money. The money can then be spent on new supplies, such as an upgraded camera.[4] Real-life photos and footage of the animals can be unlocked. When unlocked, the content is stored in the "Animal Library".

The soundtrack for the game was composed, orchestrated, and conducted by Wataru Hokoyama.[5]

Development

Sony first showed a trailer for Afrika at E3 2006. This generated buzz, however, other than the title, little was actually known about the project.[6]

In 2008 Sony put up an official website for the game.[7] Soon after a game description was posted on the Japanese retailer Gamestar's website with a trailer indicating the game was about a photojournalist.[8][9]

The U.S. version of Afrika was announced at E3 2009. The game's North American release date was October 6, 2009.[10]

This is a soundtrack you cannot pass up".[13]
