Waka Waka*
"Waka Waka" means "to do" in Swahili, and players act as African traders buying goods like hides, salt, tea, textiles, jewelry, and fruits at the lowest prices possible. However, most goods are hidden, so players can send their monkey to inspect before spending money. Players must keep the village shaman satisfied, as he will aid in their trading efforts while also utilizing the special abilities of other villagers for support.
