In Africa, the fighting took place in the different villages and it took place between warriors. I most cases, the participants had to fight to the death making the games even more intense. Things began changing in the late 1960’s. This was immediately after the invention of the computer.

However, the games were not easily accessible during those days. This is because computers were only meant for a certain class of people. These were the common people and the high class individuals leaving the poor plus the average earners with no access to the games.
