Really amazing video, it's not 100% accurate but it's close enough. We definitely need more videos like this out there. I'm actually working on a media platform that aims to produce more videos like this.

Thanks again for sharing this awesome video.

Excellent list, my personal favourite is Throne of Gods. There are probably a couple of games I would add to the list.

1) Touch Combat
http://beta.kugali.com/product/touch-combat
Developed by Bisong Taiwo Touch Combat follows the adventures of Dajie’s a lone warrior searching for her lover while also hunting down an incarnate of evil. Having mastered a number of martial arts and combat skills the game allows you to explore all of the fighting moves in Dajie’s arsenal. Over the course of the game, you will battle demons, rival warriors and an number of other foes. True to its name, this game features no on-screen joystick or digital buttons that clutter the screen. Dajie’s fighting prowess can be expressed through simple touch and swipe gestures that include infinite juggles, Counters, Rolls, Launches and Combo linking.

2) Democracy 3: Africa

Technically this game wasn't developed in Nigeria but I think it's something everyone in Nigeria and the rest of African needs to know about. Democracy 3: Africa (D3A) is a political simulation game developed by Positech Games. The simulation allows you get to play as the leader of any of the game’s available African countries(including Nigeria).

As most people have pointed out there are quite a few relatively successful game developers in Nigeria. However, the landscape is incredibly challenging due to poor infrastructure and lack of resources. Gamesole is probably the most successful Nigerian game development company and I have to commend then for their awesome strategy. Most mobile game developers usually make games for Android or IOS so those markets are heavily saturated. Gamesole specifically targeted the Widows mobile OS where there's considerable less competition and it worked to their advantage.

Anyway, If you're interested in keeping track of the Nigerian game developers out there, I suggest checking out http://beta.kugali.com/ it's a database that curates African video games(and other visual media). You'll be able to follow and support video game developers from across Nigeria and the rest of Africa.
