Africa's gaming population is forecast to pass 406 million this year and its tournaments now feed directly into world championships, yet the whole continent's esports economy is estimated at tens of millions of dollars and its champions still finish near the bottom abroad.
Competitive gaming in Zimbabwe now has a recognised national association, a football federation sending teams to FIFA's esports competitions and a yearly convention with cash prizes, but the biggest payout on record is US$500 and data costs still decide who gets to play.
Africin, a Zimbabwean-built app for African film, has five local titles, offline downloads and live premieres, and has moved from pay-per-movie to monthly plans from US$2.99 within weeks of its public push.
