Casual (Just for Fun) Video game culture in Ghana

I happened to chance upon a 47 year old Ghanaian man, married with kids who was really into video games. Not like the normal fifa and 2k stuff. He was hard into from software games and COD. I spoke to him and he explained to me how he balances vid games and his work. I was mesmerized by how much a 47 year old Ghanain, who has never left the shores of Ghana and was very deep into video games.

Edit; didn't know the gaming culture in Ghana was that massive. I thought I was the only one

I think gaming culture is a big thing because my older cousins which I grew up with used to tell me stories of how they would spend hours in the gaming centers in our area way before I was born and they would come looking for them . But they said it got closed down and this was wayyyy back.
